Gunners trial Ghanaian talent

According to reports in Ghana, Arsenal have handed a trial to Accra Hearts of Oak teenager Tawrick Jibril.


The 16-year-old midfielder has attracted a lot of foreign interest in recent weeks and has apparently caught the eye of Arsenal’s chief scout Steve Rowley.


Reports claim that Jibril will undergo a two-week trial at Emirates Stadium in June with a view to impressing Arsene Wenger.


Continuing their unstinting search for undiscovered talents across the globe, The Gunners are also being linked with French youngster Francis Coquelin.


Reports in France detail how the 17-year-old Stade Lavallois midfielder and France youth international recently spent a trial spell in North London that was cut short due to injury.
