The lads are Barry Kader (20) and Alex Somian (20) from the Ivory Coast and Albanian Jahmir Hyka (18). The last of these is already a familiar face in Trondheim as he trained with RBK last October. The junior international did impress as a substitute in a friendly against local Trondheim club Nidelv.

"We saw him a lot last year, and want to keep in touch with this player. He is an extreme technician with good balance and speed," Per-Mathias Høgmo tells rosenborg.info.

"He is viewed as the best player of his age in Albania," Rune Bratseth adds.

As Kader and Somian, Hyka will join the A squad when they go to La Manga on a training camp on Saturday. The contact with the two from the Ivory Coast was managed through talent scout Stig Torbjørnsen, who also discovered Yssouf Kone.

"They are both U-21 internationals," Høgmo tells, wanting to spend the following days to get to know the African duo better.

And then, time will show wether the three test players will be found in the RBK outfit.

"Whatever the outcome, it is important for us to always be in touch with a range of young players, who can be of use in the long term," Per-Mathias Høgmo ends.
