What will kitto's nickname be?Ryan Kitto joins the Jets
Newcastle Jets are pleased to announce that versatile attacker Ryan Kitto has been contracted by the club as an injury replacement player for Labinot Haliti until the completion of the Hyundai A-League 2015/16 season.
Kitto, 21, trialled with Scott Miller’s men this week and impressed the Newcastle Jets coaching staff with his efforts.
The Australian youth international was a member of the Adelaide United set-up in his home state of South Australia between 2013 and the start of this year, though Kitto was last contracted to National Premier Leagues (NPL) South Australia side West Torrens Birkalla.
With West Torrens Birkalla Kitto scored an impressive 17 goals throughout the 2015 NPL South Australia season, helping the club to a third-placed finish.
Kitto’s displays in the 2015 NPL South Australia saw him rewarded with the Sergio Melta Medal as the competition’s Player of the Year last month.
Jets Head Coach Scott Miller said that positive reports from respected individuals within football plus good trial form from the player himself had equated to the opportunity for Kitto to join the Jets full time.
“Ryan arrived with us highly referenced from senior football figures,” Miller explained. “In the first couple of days he showed commitment, but he’s followed that through with his technical ability.”
“Ryan can play a variety of positions in the front third, which adds to our squad flexibility.”
“We’ve found him to be a very respectful person, and we’re sure will fit into the team culture well,” Miller concluded.
Kitto has been added to the Newcastle Jets preliminary squad for Sunday’s Hyundai A-League 2015/16 round 7 encounter against his former club, Adelaide United, at Coopers Stadium.
“I am very grateful and humbled by the opportunity that I have been given by the Club,” Kitto said.
“I found out that the Club had a bit of interest in me a few weeks ago, and they [Newcastle Jets] were great in allowing me to finish off my University studies before coming over to trial.”
“When I left Adelaide United and joined West Torrens Birkalla it was clear that my football career could go one of two ways – I could chuck the towel in and say ‘that’s it’, or knuckle down.”
“Thankfully West Torrens Birkalla provided me with an environment where I could play in my preferred way and I was successful there, and that has helped lead to this opportunity,” he said.
Kitto added that he’s been made to feel welcome at the Jets, though should he see game time against his old employers Adelaide on Sunday he won’t be treating the game any differently than normal.
“The environment has been fantastic and I sensed straight away that the Jets is a Club on the up both on and off the field,” Kitto said.
“The boys have provided great support for me this week.”
“I’d be excited to get an opportunity this weekend [against Adelaide] but it doesn’t matter who we’re playing, I’ll just take it as any other game and seek to do my best for Newcastle Jets,” he concluded.

Supposedly best players outside the a league in Aus (nsw edition)
Apparently Kwame Yeboah is looking for a loan move back to the A-league. Not that we would have any chance!
We are more likely to end up with Reinaldo who is in Australia looking for another A-league gig. He is an australia citizen now so would fit in. I thought he was average and a bit older back when he was at brisbane, surely he wouldn't be good enough, sounds like a perfect fit!

Jets in the dark over possible David Carney transfer
By James Gardiner
Dec. 9, 2015, 10:59 a.m
A possible move to a cashed up Qatari club for David Carney is news to the Newcastle Jets.
An unnamed club is reportedly set to make an offer for the in-form winger during the January transfer window.
However, Jets chief executive David Eland told the Newcastle Herald on Wednesday morning that there had not been an approach - formal or informal - to the club about any player.
"We have not seen or heard anything regarding David Carney or any player," Eland said.
"He is a contract player at the Newcastle Jets until the end of the season. Nothing has changed."
Carney is one of 12 Jets players off contract.
In his third season in Newcastle, the silky-skilled attacker has been reborn under new coach Scott Miller.
A veteran of 48 Socceroo games, the left-sided winger has scored two goals, provided three assists and and created more chances than any player.
The Qatari club is reported to be willing to pay a transfer fee to secure Carney’s release next month.
The Jets have slipped out of the top six and Miller is likely to will be reluctant to lose his most creative player in the middle of the season.
But the 32-year-old is only contracted until the end of the campaign and could leave at that point for nothing.
A move to the Middle East would add another leg to Carney’s football journey, which has seen him play in England, Holland, Spain, Uzbekistan and the US.
The Herald is seeking comment from Carney's manager Paddy Dominguez.

oh god, please let it be true (and happen).
From a business sense if we can get money from a club for a bloke who is at 32 and with 6 months left on his contract, it is probably a good thing.
