STB were the first to report that Swede, Erik Sundin was rumoured to be interesting Town. Sundin is set to join Town on trial for a few days. Whereas Shefki Kuqi's brother, Njazi Kuqi is also set to join on trial with both players under the recommendation from Anders Limpar to Joe Royle.

Njazi, who plays for Finnish side FC Lahti, has previously had trials at English clubs such as Manchester City, Birmingham, Middlesbrough and Barnsley is looking for a move to England.

With Town well off in that department it is more likely that their attentions will be more towards Erik Sundin who can play either side of the midfield. This versatility, coupled with the fact that the Café Opera midfielder is out of contract and would command no transfer fee, would make him a more possible signing should he impress.

Town supremo, Joe Royle explained to the club site about his conversation with Anders Limpar: "I saw Anders Limpar at a dinner recently and he asked me if he could send Sundin over for a trial.

"He will be with us for a few days and we will have a look at him and it will be the same with Shefki's brother."
