Kingstonian Confirm Sweeney Trial - Ipswich Town News
Kingstonian have confirmed that 19-year-old midfielder or defender Dan Sweeney has spent this week on trial with the Blues.
The former AFC Wimbledon youngster is now back with his club and will play in their Ryman League Premier Division game at Billericay Town on Saturday.
Kingstonian manager Alan Dowson said: "Dan is a talented lad and has developed well since he came to us in the spring. It's inevitable that there are pro clubs looking at him.
"He's still only 19 but is a regular member of the first team and has played an important part in our season so far.
"Any arrangements would have to take that into account but it's still very early and his focus is on our game tomorrow."
It’s understood that Sweeney will again train with the Town squad at Playford Road next week.
