DEFENDER Eddy Bosnar is likely to learn at the weekend whether Sydney FC will sign him and the signs are promising.
Bosnar, who was recently released by Chinese side Guangzhou R&F, has been training with the Sky Blues for over a fortnight.
Tiago Calvano's exit to the US this week further weakens a Sydney defence which had already lost fellow import Pascal Bosschaart in October and it opens up another spot in coach Frank Farina's squad.
Farina admits the timing could be right for Bosnar before the January transfer window closes next week.
"Yes it does open a door but whether or not we decide to welcome him through that door we'll decide most probably on the weekend because that decision needs to be made by Tuesday," said Farina on Thursday.

"Eddy's looking in good shape and we are looking a bit thin across the central defence now.
"So there's an opportunity there."
The 33-year-old journeyman hasn't been back in Australia since leaving the old NSL in 2000, having since had stints at clubs including Everton, Sturm Graz, Dinamo Zagreb and Shimizu S-Pulse.

Bosnar represented Australia at three different age groups but was never picked for the Socceroos.
Farina said it was more matter of money rather than Bosnar proving his skill.
"He doesn't have to do a lot to impress me. He's got a great history," Farina said.
"It's just a decision we've got to make both financially and for the team.
"If it's the right one we'll go about it."

Farina said however, while there are two spots he can fill in this current transfer window, the club will only be offering contracts until the end of this season.
With the majority of the players coming off contract at the end of this campaign, including the likes of Alessandro Del Piero, Ali Abbas, Joel Chianese, Richard Garcia and Terry McFlynn, Farina says he has plans to wait until then to make more permanent signings.
"If we fill those spots it will only be until the end of this year it won't be long term," he said.
"At the end of this current season only eight players remain on contract so there's an opportunity to really rebuild."

Farina won't be making too many changes this week however, as the Sky Blues face Melbourne Heart on Friday having dismantled their cross-town rivals Melbourne Victory 5-0 last week.
"It's hard to change a winning side," he said.
