Skard Confirms Bees Trial - Ipswich Town News

Released midfielder Vemund Brekke Skard has confirmed that he is set for a trial with Brentford, as reported by TWTD earlier this week. The Norwegian, whose contract with Town was settled last month, was close to winning a deal with HamKam back in his home country before the transfer window closed.

Skard said: "It was disappointing not to get a contract with HamKam. Now I just have to wait and see what happens.

"My agent has told me that Brentford have shown some interest and have invited me for a trial. I don't know when yet."
