Carrusca, 34, has over 100 appearances in the Hyundai A-League to his name scoring 25 goals and will link up with former mentor, Wanderers head coach Josep Gombau.

Beginning his career with Estudiantes in Argentina's Primeria Division, Carrusca was part of Galatasaray’s squad that won the Turkish Superliga title in 2008.
