Helbi on Long-Term Trial with Accrington Stanley

Helbi on Long-Term Trial with Accrington Stanley

Published Monday 16th of January 2017 05:44 PM

14-year-old Helbi Pipa has been invited to train with Accrington Stanley following an impressive performance at our trials in October.

The explosive winger joined the u16’s in the academy for his first session on Friday and will be training twice a week for the foreseeable, while he is assessed by academy staff.

If Helbi continues to perform to the level that convinced the club to invite him in, they will give him a contract for the next six-months and then re-assess at the end of the season.

Helbi’s Dad, Jose, said: “The training with Accrington has been excellent, the standard is of a really high level and he is enjoying it at the moment.

“We’re just going to keep going for a few weeks and see how he gets on and see what the club decide to do.”

Helbi, who currently plays for Sunday League side Amarath FC was their top scorer last season and is already into double figures this campaign.

The prolific wide-man also had a trial with Bradford FC in 2015 and was offered a place in their academy, which he later turned down before booking his place at a UK Football Trial event.

Speaking about the trial Helbi attended in Manchester, Jose said: “The football trial was great, it’s a fantastic service.

“He got good advice back from the coaches who all had a lot of experience and put on a very good session, which challenged the players.”

We wish Helbi good luck for his trial with Accrington over the next few weeks and will bring you updates on his progress as we get them.
