Western Sydney Wanderers have added more drama in the build-up to the next Sydney derby by signing another former Sydney FC player, Terry Antonis.

The fringe Socceroo arrives in Sydney on Friday to complete his loan move from Greek club PAOK to the Wanderers for the rest of the season.

He will be eligible to make his debut in the round-14 clash against Melbourne City when the Australian transfer window reopens, but all eyes will be on the Sydney derby the following week when he is likely to face his former club.

The Wanderers confirmed Antonis' arrival on Friday afternoon, adding more depth to their already-impressive midfield stocks.
