The keeper once dubbed by Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez as the world’s best prospect, Dean Bouzanis, has signed for Melbourne Victory.

Meanwhile Harry Kewell's manager Bernie Mandic has been spotted at the club's AAMI Park headquarters, igniting hopes the Socceroos star may still link with the club.

20-year-old Bouzanis who’s spent the past four years with Liverpool announced the move via twitter earlier today.

“I can now confirm that I have agreed terms with Melbourne Victory FC. Looking forward to the new season with my new club,” read his tweet.

Bouzanis, who once represented at Sydney FC, has spent the past few days in the Victorian capital weighing up his options.

He described the decision to turn his back on Europe as the “hardest” of his life.

With the young custodian in the bag, Victory continue to work to secure the signature of Kewell. Souces have confirmed to GGArmy.com that super-agent Mandic met with Mebourne officials last night.
