Despite speculation that Alessandro Del Piero may be looking elsewhere, he appears a good bet to extend his stay with Sydney FC, priced at $1.25 with online bookmaker sportsbet to still be with the Sky Blues by October 1st.

Flamengo, the Brazilian club rumoured to be interested in the marquee player are not without hope of snaring him, next in the market at $3.75.

There is no shortage of clubs keen to get his services, with the LA Galaxy and New York Red Bulls priced at $15 along with his form club Juventus at $21.

It appears a long shot any other A-League team will get his interest with Western Sydney and the Melbourne Victory outsiders at $34.

“He has been dominant for Sydney despite the team struggling. They will be desperate to hang onto him but we are tipping the fans can breathe easy and he will pull on the Sky Blue uniform for one more year,” said sportsbet.com.au’s Shaun Anderson.

In other A-League betting, the Central Coast Mariners remain $3.00 favourites to win the title ahead of the Melbourne Victory ($4.00) and the Western Sydney Wanderers ($4.33).
