HSV trial Finn

Hamburg have handed a trial to Finnish forward Tomi Petrescu.

The young Finn has been recommended to HSV by a scout and they are set to put him through his paces this week.

Petrescu has been training with his former club JJK, as he is currently without a team following his exit from Leicester.

The teenager spent three seasons with Leicester, but departed after failing to cement a regular place in the team, and he is keen to kick-start his career.

JJK chairman Janne Sarkka hopes the club have played a role in helping Petrescu secure a fresh start.

"We wanted to help Tomi to keep his fitness up and also to help him find the right links abroad," said Sarkka.
