Swiss midfielder Matteo Fedele is on the verge of continuing his career with Birkirkara FC.
The veteran midfielder started the season with Ħamrun Spartans but has struggled for first-team football this season and has been informed by the Premier League leaders that he can look for a new club this month.
Floriana, Hibernians and Birkirkara all sounded interest in the player but it’s Birkirkara who have won the race for his signature.
In fact, the Times of Malta can confirm that the Stripes have reached a verbal agreement with the 30-year-old who is expected to sign his contract with the Premier League club later on Saturday.
Birkirkara are due to face Nadur Youngsters in the FA Trophy at the Centenary Stadium on Saturday.
It is understood that Fedele will sign a deal until the end of the season with the Stripes having an option to stay on for another season.
Fedele made five appearances with Ħamrun Spartans this season with his best contribution coming in their historic UEFA Conference League run which saw them reach the Play-off Round.
In fact, Fedele scored the decisive penalty in a dramatic shoot-out win over Levski Sofia in Bulgaria.
Then in the following round he scored in the Spartans’ spectacular 3-3 draw against Partizan Belgrade at the National Stadium.
