St Pat's trial for Cameroon star

St Patrick’s Athletic manager Eamonn Collins is to give Cameroon international Joseph Ndo a trial at the Inchicore club.

Club PR manager Simone Freeman has confirmed that the club are "currently liasing with Ndo" for his impending arrival in the country. "The club are back in pre-season training next Monday," she added.

Ndo, who was part of the Cameroon squads at the 1998 and 2002 World Cups, has endured a poor run of form in recent times, which has seen him switch clubs and countries from RC Strasbourg in France to Swiss club Neuchatal Xamax, while a spell with Saudi Arabian club Al Khaleej was cut short due to contractual difficulties.

The 27-year-old is currently plying his trade in the Chinese league.
