Bobby Convey and Antonio Otero, the two young Americans sent over by Frank Yallop, will be arriving in Britain tomorrow. They are joining Town for a short training spell. The players, both midfielders, play for Yallop's side DC United.
Convey, 17, became the youngest player ever to make an MLS appearance when he was in the DC United side last season. MLS has agreements with several British and European clubs that they can send young players for periods of training that will aid in their development.
