No Deals For Trialists

Reds trialists John Glele, Jurgen Csandl, Deogo and Anduele Prior have all left the club after not being offered a contract.

Davey gave his reasons for the four snubs:

"John Glele is an excellent left back. We felt that we had Rob Kozluk at the club already and signing John would stand in the way of Luke Potter's development.

"Jurgen Csandl is another good player but I did not feel that we could get 15 or 20 games out of him in a Championship season. We looking at getting a defender in with a little more stature.

"Deogo had all the right attributes but was not at the right fitness level to be tested at this level. We will monitor his progress.

"Anduela Prior came here with a good pedigree from Holland but if we were to sign him for the money they wanted then he would have had to have been a regular in our starting eleven. We did not feel we could offer that with the likes of Martin Devaney and Jamal Campbell-Ryce in our squad as well".
