Tony Vidmar Biography

Tony Vidmar is one of the most popular and richest Association Football Player who was born on July 4, 1970 in Adelaide, Adelaide, Australia. Antony “Tony” Vidmar (/ˈ v ɪ d m ɑːr / VID -mar; born 4 July 1970 in Adelaide) is an Australian former football (soccer) player and coach, who currently serves as an assistant coach with the Australia national association football team. He was a member of the Australian national team, competed at the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona for his native country, and with 76 caps, is one of Australia’s most capped players. His brother Aurelio Vidmar was also an Australian football player.

On 9 May 2006 Vidmar announced he was withdrawing himself from World Cup team selection for medical reasons, specifically an irregular heart rhythm. Doctors discovered this irregularity was due to a blood clot in his left coronary artery. Following an operation in London, Vidmar was given the all-clear to resume his professional football career. Vidmar announced his international retirement after the friendly fixture against Paraguay on 7 October 2006, in which Australia drew 1-1.

“There are a lot of people that I’d like to thank – when I first started in the National Soccer League my first coach Zoran Matic was a huge influence for my career and every other coach that I’ve had since has influenced me in some way.” “I’d like to thank everyone at the Mariners – everyone in the office to the coaching staff and my team-mates, after what happened with my medical condition it was a gamble that they took to bring me here and I’d like to thank them for giving me the opportunity to finish my career in Australia, it would definitely be nice to finish it off with a Championship.”

He then joined Welsh side Cardiff City on a free transfer in 2003, with manager Lennie Lawrence being quick to sign him after missing out the previous year following his release from Rangers. Vidmar quickly became a fans favourite at Cardiff and made 73 appearances for the club before leaving in 2005 to re-sign for Dutch side NAC Breda, the club he had left to join Rangers.
