A young Nigerian on trial in Sweden

AIK continues to scout the market for emerging young talent. The Swedish club has confirmed the arrival of Shedrack Egboh, a Nigerian winger from Inspire Sports Academy, for a trial.

The player began his trial with the club's youth teams. He trained with AIK's U19 squad last week before joining the first team for his initial session this Tuesday. The Swedish side will now monitor his abilities before making a decision on whether to extend his trial period or offer a contract.
