Editorial Note
This feature contains rumour and speculation. All of these rumours should be treated as unconfirmed gossip until any move is officially announced by the club itself. We make no apologies for publishing some rumour and gossip (after all, even the state broadcaster, the BBC, publishes a daily Football Gossip column) but we’d just like to reiterate that this feature should not be treated too seriously.
The newspaper suggests that versatile defender Gavin Hoyte is in training with the club and could sign as early as Thursday.
24 year-old Hoyte has two caps for the Soca Warriors and would join Chris Birchall, Hector Sam and Tony Rougier as the club’s fourth International from the Carribean islands.
Hoyte was called up by his country in May for a tour of South America. He played in the fixtures against Argentina and Iran.
