Keane Yet to Decide on Brazilian Trialist - Ipswich Town News
Boss Roy Keane says he will make a decision soon on whether to keep Brazilian trialist Marcus Picciarelli. The 20-year-old came on as a sub in Tuesday’s 2-0 win at Leiston.
Keane said: "He’s been here for a few days but he’s got a lot to do because he’s coming into a group of good young players.
"We’ll make a decision over the next few days. We want to give the boy a chance. It’s not easy when you go on trial, particularly when you’re thrown in to a tough game like the one at Leiston.”
Picciarelli is currently with Rio de Janeiro side Macaé.
