Overview edit
Pre-season edit
On 14 April 2023, it was announced that Ufuk Talay would depart the club at the end of the season. The following week, assistant coach Giancarlo Italiano was announced as the next head coach on a 2-year deal.[1][2]
On 10 May, the Phoenix announced the departures of eight players, including vice-captain Oliver Sail, Clayton Lewis, Steven Ugarkovic and Callan Elliot.[3]
On 11 May, the Phoenix announced their first signing of the off-season in Mohamed Al-Taay on a two-year deal from the Newcastle Jets.[4] On 18 May, it was announced that Nicholas Pennington had signed a one-year contract extension with the club.[5] On 9 June, the Phoenix announced the signing of Jack Duncan on a one-year deal.[6]
On 6 July, the Phoenix signed academy player Lukas Kelly-Heald on a four-year professional contract.[7] On 2 August, it was announced that Reserves midfielder Fin Conchie had signed a three-year professional contract with the club.[8] On 13 September, the club announced the signing of their academy captain Isaac Hughes on a two-year professional deal.[9] On 27 September, the Phoenix announced their final off-season signing in 17-year old Luke Supyk, who had only joined the club's academy 5 months prior, on a three-year deal.[10] Despite initial criticism, these signings came as a result of the club putting greater emphasis on developing young New Zealand players.[11]
The Phoenix would made a positive start to pre-season with a 5–1 win over Western Suburbs in their first friendly. They would then go on to beat Wellington Olymic twice with an aggregate score of 5–1.
Australia Cup edit
The Phoenix progressed to the Round of 16 of the Australia Cup after a 2–1 win over NPL side Peninsula Power.[12] However, they would then succumb to a 3–0 loss against Melbourne City in the Round of 16, getting eliminated from the cup campaign in the process.[13]
