Hibs look at Cameroon right-back (08.07.2007)
IAIN COLLIN
HIBERNIAN manager John Collins is weighing up a move for Cameroon defender Thierry Gathuessi after the African joined the club`s pre-season training camp in Austria.
The 25-year-old could play part of today`s friendly against Austrian Second Division outfit SV Vocklabruck in a bid to impress following a week-long trial with the Easter Road side.
The former Montpellier and Cannes right-back was one of a dozen players who took part in a trial match against Hibs` under-19 side back in May as Collins sought to strengthen his squad for the coming season.
The right-back, who has been on the fringes of the Cameroon international squad, was granted permission by French Third Division club Sete to travel to Hibs` Obertraun training base, despite having a year left on his current contract, and a nominal fee would be expected if Collins follows up his initial interest.
Collins is also running the rule over an unnamed striker this week as he looks to add to his five major
summer recruits, Alan O`Brien, Yves Makabu-Ma-Kalambay, Brian Kerr, Clayton Donaldson and Torben Joneleit.
All of the new signings will get a run out against Vocklabruck today, with Collins expected to field two different teams against the hosts.
He said: "We`ll use as many of the players as possible. We will probably start with one team and then change it around completely at the break and use another 11 for the second half.
"The result of the game is not the important thing, it`s about seeing what the boys can do, how they play as a team and as individuals, and it will let us see how they are progressing, how things are taking shape. This match is about seeing where we are. We`ve all been counting down to the weekend, the boys have all been looking forward to the game, to getting back to playing football again after a few weeks away."
