Brighton winger Solly March has described a failed Newcastle trial during the early stages of his career as a 'blessing in disguise'
Whilst playing for Lewes' Under-18's side, March was invited to train with the north east club, with his dad and agent travelling with him. However, a combination of illness and nerves meant the trial didn't go to plan.
However, that failure inadvertently paved the way for the now 24-year-old to join Brighton's academy side.
Speaking to The Argus ahead of the game against Newcastle at St James' Park, insists he has no regrets regarding how his career panned out.
