Brisbane Roar FC has signed Australian midfielder Tyrese Francois on a multi-year deal, adding significant depth and experience to the club’s midfield ahead of the 2026/27 season.
Francois, 26, joins the Roar after a career built in England and Europe. Born in Campbelltown, New South Wales, he moved to London as a junior and came through the Fulham academy, going on to make his first-team debut for the club in the Premier League before loan spells at Croatia’s HNK Gorica and Denmark’s Vejle Boldklub. He most recently played for Wigan Athletic in England’s League One.
Francois has represented Australia at U23 level, earning selection during the 2021 and 2022 international windows as part of a strong crop of Australian talent developed overseas.
“I’m really happy to be joining Brisbane Roar. I’m excited and looking forward to a new chapter back home in Australia. I can’t wait to get started, meet my new teammates and give my all for the fans.”
Sporting Director James Gow said the signing reflected the club’s recruitment ambitions as it builds towards the new season.
“We’re very pleased as a club to bring a player of Tyrese’s quality to the football club. He’s gained immense experience as a footballer during his time abroad, which we are confident will see him impact the team positively.
“He is a player with a fantastic mentality, an excellent football IQ and a lot of technical ability. We look forward to seeing him get started.”
Francois will link up with the Roar’s playing group as soon as possible ahead of the new season.
