Hello everyone,
First off all I would like to welcome the new players and our new manager Mr Slaven Bilic.
I am looking forward to an exciting final season at the Boylen Ground.
It has been a busy time during the off season and at the start of pre-season and the positive news is that Diafra Sakho, Doneil Henry and James Tomkins are training and Andy Carroll is getting close to his comeback.
Andy is training on the pitch, building up his fitness and will join the team in the next few weeks
James , Diafra and Doneil are all with us in Ireland and have been working well over the off-season, a balance between rest and fitness work.
We are preparing for next week’s first leg of our UEFA Europa League first qualifying round game against FC Lusitans with 25 players in Ireland.
We are training very well and have no injuries in the group, working hard towards the game next week.
Have a great week!
Stijn Vandenbroucke
Head of Medical and Sports Science
