Former Newcastle United starlet Yasin Ben El-Mhanni is on trial at Championship club Reading as he looks to resurrect his career.
The 26-year-old winger has been playing largely in lower league football after leaving Newcastle in 2018 in the wake of a complaint of racism and bullying that saw academy coach Peter Beardsley banned for eight months.
El-Mhanni has been at Reading for several weeks as manager Paul Ince assesses whether to sign him.
But the speedy and skilful wideman is also attracting interest from several other clubs in the Premier League and Championship.
