Trialist Named In Finland Squad

Last updated : 08 November 2003 By Brian Cartlidge

Blues boss Steve Bruce confirmed last week that the young midfielder would be coming to St. Andrew's for a trial.

Described as similar in style to former Liverpool player Jari Litmanen the HJK Helsinki youngster has been named in an experimental Finland side for two friendlies against Honduras in Houston on November 16th and Costa Rica on November 19th in San Jose.

There is no place in the Finland squad however for Blues on-loan striker Mikael Forssell. That I'm sure will please most fans as Blues entertain Arsenal at St. Andrew's on November 22nd!
