I'm Just out to do Well here

ELIJAH JUST wants to shine at Motherwell this season - and cement his place in New Zealand's World Cup squad.

The midfielder, 25, got off to a good start at Fir Park with an excellent display in their draw with Rangers.

Just was signed by new Well boss Jens Berthel Askou this summer from Danish outfit Horsens. And he's convinced a move to the Premiership can increase his chances of being in Darren Bazeley’s final squad for the USA, Mexico and Canada next summer.

Just scored the Kiwis' first and last goals in their successful World Cup qualifying campaign. But he’s got stiff competition in New Zealand's midfield, with NAC Breda's Matthew Garbett, Nottingham Forest's Marko Stamenic and St Etienne’s Ben Old in the mix too.
