Five Players on Trial with Professional Club in London
An incredible five players are on trial with a Professional Football Club based in London, following a successful UK Football Trial last month.
The five players, Max Harris, Alexander Munroe, Isaac Ebejer and brothers Robin and David Soare, are all training with Dagenham & Redbridge FC after being scouted at our events earlier in the year.
Dagenham, who currently ply their trade in League 2, attended our football trials in West London, South London and Essex in February and April and have selected a handful of boys to train with the development centre and get a taste of pro club football, with a view to signing.
Isaac, 12, who was scouted in February, has already attended three sessions with the club and has taken a lot from the sessions, "The training was really good and pushed him a lot," said his parent, "The club were very happy with him and they told me they can see his potential."
Dagenham & Redbridge scout, Anton (pictured above, far left), revealed to us what he saw in Isaac that caught they eye, "He stood out at the trial for me, you could see he was naturally technically gifted and had a good left foot.
"Isaac was very passionate but for me the biggest thing about all of these players is that they were very coachable and willling to learn.
"They all showed the right attitude and seemed to me like they would listen to their coaches and work hard, so that was a big factor."
These are just five of the players that Dagenham have got lined up to look at, with more expected to be looked at in pre-season.
We wish the trialists the best of luck for the coming weeks and bring you updates on their individual progress as we get it.
