鈥淲e are really pleased to bring Marko to the club, he has good experience and the attributes we were looking for.

鈥淗e will challenge Daniel for the shirt but is also another seasoned professional for our crop of young goalkeepers to learn from as well.鈥

Marosi has signed in time to be available for Argyle's Championship game at home to leaders Sunderland on Saturday.
