Grays Athletic striker Dumebi Dumaka is joining the Blues on trial. The 21-year-old is set to spend the week at Playford Road.

Dumaka has scored 16 goals in 16 games for the Ryman League Premier Division side this season with the Blues reported to have watched him as he netted twice during last month’s 4-0 home victory over Lewes.

West Ham have also been strongly linked with the former Heybridge Swifts and Barking frontman, who joined Grays in the summer of 2014.

Town boss Mick McCarthy has previously had notable successes when dipping into non-league having signed Michael Kightly from Grays when Wolves manager and picking up Tyrone Mings from Chippenham Town for the Blues for £10,000 and selling him in an £8 million deal in the summer.
