Arsenal take highly rated Brek Shea on trial

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has given a month trial to USA international Brek Shea once the MLS season comes to a close. The FC Dallas midfielder is very highly rated in his homeland.

Arsene Wenger wants to have a closer look at the versatile player's abilities, and will be hosting him for training for a month.


"The decision to send Shea to train with the Gunners was made after USA head coach Jurgen Klinsmann encouraged his MLS-based players to spend the off-season training overseas to enter January camp in top shape," an FC Dallas statement said.


A delighted Brek Shea said of the trial period: "To see how he [Wenger] does things. He has had so many young players over the years and turned them into who they became, that experience will be pretty cool."
