Bosnar chases his Socceroos dream

Setting his sights... Bosnar is leaving Japan for a new challenge (S-PULSE)

Defender Eddy Bosnar is poised to join K-League side Suwon Bluewings on a two-year deal and is hoping the proposed move will resurrect his Australia national team aspirations.

Bosnar, who scored eight goals in 47 games form Shimizu S-Pulse during the past two season, confirmed his exit from J-League outfit on Tuesday.

The 31-year-old received a number of offers from Korean clubs but appears set to join a club he refers to as 'massive'.

Suwon is a two-times Asian champion, four-times K-League title winner and finished fourth in the 2011 Korean top flight.

"If the move goes ahead I think it gives me a good chance of getting back in the Socceroos picture," Bosnar said.

"The facilities at Suwon are better than anything I have seen in Japan and it would give me a chance to play at a higher level.

"This could be a good deal for me and Shimizu."

But first Bosnar is on his way to Croatia to marry his long-time partner.
