Dunbar on Trial at Colchester - Ipswich Town News

Left-back Seb Dunbar is on trial at Colchester United, his short-term Town contract having been up in January. The 18-year-old is set to play for the U’s reserves against Stevenage at Maldon this evening.

Former Stoke High School pupil Dunbar came through the Blues’ academy ranks and was amongst the seven scholars who were offered professional contracts last summer.

However, while the other six were handed one-year deals, the Ipswich-born full-back was given an initial contract until September, which was subsequently extended until January.

A regular in the reserves, Dunbar was unable to push on into the first team squad.
