Former Western Sydney Wanderers forward Tahj Minniecon has signed with Philippine club Loyola Meralco Sparks in an attempt to get his professional career back on track.

Minniecon started playing soccer with Canberra junior club Brindabella Blues, then called Blue Light, and was part of the Australian Institute of Sport program before signing with the A-League club Brisbane Roar.

The 25-year-old also played for the now-defunct Gold Coast United and then the Wanderers, who released him at the end of last season.

But the former Olyroo has signed a one-year deal with Loyola and will start in January with the view to resurrecting his career in Asia.

His manager, Kaz Patafta, said he was over his recent injury woes.

"The reason for him going there is to get into a side where he can at least just play out a season, because he hasn't been able to do that for a while now," Patafta said.

"We start there and I'm sure he'll make a name for himself in Asia and those areas.
