Former Town strikers Shefki Kuqi and Pablo Couñago are set to be reunited at Finnish club FC Honka, where Kuqi is the manager.

The 34-year-old Spaniard will reportedly join up with Honka this week, having previously been with Spanish third-tier side CD Choco.

Kuqi, 37, took over as boss at Honka, who play in the Finnish top flight and are in the first qualifying round of the Europa League, in February.

Meanwhile, on-loan Blues winger Jack Doherty was in the Waterford United side which lost 1-0 at home to Town's pre-season opponents Shelbourne in the Airtricity League First Division last night.

pinablue added 19:56 - May 10 Finnish Football Season (from Wiki !) so Pablo will be fine :) All Finnish domestic football competitions take place in the spring, summer and autumn, due to weather conditions. Similar systems are used in the other Nordic countries as well.

BlueFinn added 08:10 - May 15 ...and here's Pablo! I can see him being useful to Honka playing 1-2's like he used to behind real runners.There are those in Shefki's team already. The biggest Finnish sports magazine predicted Honka to finish second from bottom after big losses in their squad. They are 4th now after eight rounds. Every paper likes to write about Shefki and how vocal he is. http://www.iltasanomat.fi/veikkausliiga/art-1288688864552.html?pos=ok-trm-urhl-e
