Sydney FC are trumpeting the retention of A-League Women coach Ante Juric after he re-signed with the club for a further two seasons.

The Sky Blues said Juric penned the new deal after rejecting offers overseas.

The former Socceroo has led Sydney to three consecutive ALW premierships.

He has also played a role in developing the likes of Cortnee Vine, Remy Siemsen and Clare Wheeler on their paths to becoming Matildas players.

"I am proud to be part of Sydney FC and the success we have achieved," Juric said.

"We have a great group and I am as committed as the girls to winning trophies and achieving more with this club.

"We want to go on to bigger and better things and I'm excited to take these girls into the AFC Champions League, which is hopefully starting later this year."

Juric's side will aim to reach this year's ALW grand final with a victory over Western United on Sunday.
