Bristol City solve goalkeeper crisis with emergency signing ahead of Leeds United clash
Marinovic, a free agent, has joined City until the end of the season after injuries left manager Lee Johnson short of options for this weekend’s game at Ashton Gate.
City have a major doubt over first choice Niki Maenpaa, who was due to undergo scans on a calf strain today, having already lost Frank Fielding to a fractured hand.

Hide AdJohnson has youngster Max O’Leary available and recalled Jojo Wollacott from a loan at Gloucester City earlier in the week but Marinovic’s arrival was announced this afternoon on the back of a successful trial.
Marinvoic, 27, spent much of his career in Germany and was most recently on the books of MLS team Vancouver Whitecaps.
He has been without a club since November and his free-agent status has allowed City to add him to their squad outside the transfer window.
