Twin trialists eyed

 

Joining Newcastle's development squad in pre-season training are two defenders, both available on free transfers following the expiry of their contracts.

 

Former Arsenal reserve Stefan O'Connor was with Crystal Palace before signing for the Gunners during 2010. The 20 year-old Londoner made one substitute appearance in the Champions League four years later.

 

Making four starts for League Two York City during a loan spell in the 2015/16 campaign, O'Connor was released by Arsenal at the end of last season affer spending time with Dutch side MVV Maastricht. 

 

19 year-old Josef Yarney is a free agent following his release by Everton, the Liverpool-born defender representing the Toffees three times at U23 level in last season's Checkatrade Trophy competition.

 

Yarney spent time with United at the tail end of last season and featured as a trialist in an U23 league fixture away to the smoggies in April.

Quite a feat for the mother that, what with a year and half the country separating them.

Because everyone loves Football Manager, looking at their details Yarney's predicted potential player ability suggest he'll be a lower end League One player.

 

O'Connor's predicted player potential ability suggests middling League Two standard.  ;D

Well that's not bad. It's a step up from Steffan Broccoli's potential of "Left untouched on the side of the plate after being mistaken for a little tree"

I was just thinking Spurs away, FA Cup Semi & Final, League Cup Final, Checkatrade Trophy. Didn't think of Spurs in the FA Cup too.
