Who'd be most likely interested in him? I'd think a English Championship club would consider him. Possibly a lower tier EPL club like QPR who do have lots of money may consider him as well.
Kewell was close to signing a new two-year contract but made the stunning decision to reject Victory's offer for family reasons.
It's understood the mother of Kewell's wife, Sheree Murphy, is gravely ill and he has chosen to stay by her side in England.
The player, who rushed to England after Australia's World Cup qualifier against Japan in Brisbane, made the decision in the last few days, blindsiding the club and the star's management.
Victory will today confirm the shock announcement that Kewell has played his last game for the A-League club.
A source close to Kewell last night confirmed his decision to the Sunday Herald Sun.
Victory officials and Kewell's management did not return calls last night.
English Championship could be next move for Kewell
In May he activated a clause to terminate his original incentive-based three-year contract at the end of the 2011-12 season.
Negotiations then began for a new two-year deal.
Kewell had all but agreed to the new two-year contract in excess of $1 million a season.
But the family issue changed all that.
"Sheree's mum has taken a turn for the worse and Harry has decided to stay in England and support her," a source close to Kewell said last night.
"Harry was happy to stay with Victory and the club wanted to keep him.
"A deal was close so it's unfortunate for both parties.
"But Harry is adamant he wants to be with his family at this time." Ange Postecoglou spoke to Kewell less than two weeks ago and the pair discussed plans for the 2012-13 season.
The new Victory coach told the Herald Sun this week everything was on track for Kewell to resume pre-season in mid July.
"I spoke to Harry last week while he was in camp and he was feeling good about things and looking forward to it - but that was without things being finalised," Postecoglou said this week.
"All the indicators are that both parties are pretty close, unless something unforeseen pops up I would expect him to sign by the middle of July."
Kewell, 33, scored eight goals from 25 matches in his maiden season for Victory.
The former Leeds United, Liverpool and Galatasaray winger's exit is a big blow for Victory on a day when Johnny Warren medallist Carlos Hernandez was expected to sign for an Indian club.
