Former Celtic striker cialis canadian pharmacy Diarmuid O’Carroll is to join Ujpest Dozsa for a week long trial.
The 22-year-old scored five goals for Morecambe in League Two last season but is currently without a club.
Ujpest, now managed by former Celtic reserve coach Willie McStay, are on the look out for a forward after losing THREE strikers in less than a week.
Injuries to Peter Kabat and Atilla Simon will put both strikers out of action for at least a month with Tibor Tizsa transferred to Royal Antwerp in Belgium on Monday.
IMPROVE
Ujpest are sitting in sixth place in the table after four games with McStay looking to improve the squad ahead of the transfer deadline and has already secured Celtic’s Mark Millar on a season long loan.
McStay said: “It’s great to be managing at a good level of football, I’ve been impressed by the standard of football in Hungary and the quality of the players at Ujpest.
“Every manager is looking to improve his squad and we’re looking at Diarmuid as a striking option.
“I know him well from his days at Celtic, he’s had a full season with Morecambe and I’ll look closely at him over the next few days.
“We had a decent start to the season then lost 3-0 at home on Sunday to Papa, I learned a lot from that game, mainly that at any level you must convert your chances.
“We had twenty efforts on goal in that match and failed to score, Papa had five chances and scored three of them.
STRIKER
“In training we’ve worked hard on a lot of things but ideally we’d like to bring in another striker or two. After losing last week it was a big blow that two of the strikers got injured just as we were selling Tibor Tizsa to Antwerp.
“We’ve got Honved to play on Sunday which will be interesting because it’s a derby match. There are five Budapest clubs in the top division and the whole country has had a big lift with Debrecini looking good for a Champions League place.
“They won the first leg 2-1 away to Levski Sofia and the whole country is looking for them to qualify next week.”
McStay added: “The job here is all consuming but we’re quickly coming to terms with things and finding our way around the football scene although the language is difficult to learn.
“Having Joe McBride with me is great, we know how each other operates and the signs are good that we can bring some success to the club.”
Interesting blog again.
I wonder how WMS thinks Ujpest woudl do in the SPL.

You could compare Ujpest's results with Motherwell's against Steau Bucharest. Ujpest lost 1-2 and 0-2, Motherwell lost 1-3 and 0-3. Ujpest would certainly be challenging for third place and the 'reward' of getting pumped in Europe just like Hearts, Aberdeen, Motherwell and Falkirk
