Ahead of the Central Coast Mariners’ Hyundai A-League round 20 fixtures against Adelaide United, Paul Okon has named a provisional squad.
After one week on the sideline through suspension, the Mariners welcome back captain Alan Baro. The return of El Capitan is a welcomed one for Okon with fellow centre-back, Antony Golec suspended due to an accumulation of yellow cards.
