NEWCASTLE Jets have struck another significant blow in the recruitment stakes with Ljubo Milicevic agreeing to a one-year extension.
Milicevic had attracted interest from new club Melbourne Heart and also China but opted for the lifestyle of the Hunter.
The former Socceroo joined The Jets at the start of their Asian Champions League campaign 13 months ago and has rejuvenated his career.
The signature of the influential defender follows the announcement on Tuesday that exciting winger Ali Abbas had signed a new one-year deal, completing the Jets retention list.
