Chris Forrester joins Bristol City on trial

St Patrick Athletic winger Chris Forrester has joined League One side Bristol City on trial.

The 20-year-old, who is regarded as one of the most talented players in the League of Ireland, has been previously linked with a number of English clubs.

However, Bristol City have invited the midfielder to join the Robins on a two-week trial period, with a view to a permanent contract.

It is understood that the Republic of Ireland Under-21 international will play for the club's development team against Peterborough United on Thursday afternoon.
