Bamba Drissa from the Ivory Coast will train with RBK in the time to come.
Full name: Bamba Assoumane Drissa
Born: 06.04.1984
Nationality: The Ivory Coast
Position: Midfield
Club:Monastir, Tunisia
It is Rosenborg's new talent scout Stig Torbjørnsen who has gotten the African to Lerkendal. The 22-year-old plays for Monastir in Tunisia.
"This stay can last from three days to three weeks. We will have to see how well Drissa fits in," Torbjørnsen told the Trondheim daily paper Adressa.
RBK will in the time to come invite more players on trials.
"It is important to be able to find out as much as we can about players, and to make certain that the ones we buy are going to be good enough for the team. It is not impossible that we will have to try eight to ten players until we find one who is good enough for RBK," he said.
Drissa watched last night's practice - the first one after the short summer vacation - from the sidelines, but today he will be on the pitch himself.
"I'm looking forward to be able to try out for RBK," Bamba Drissa said with a smile.
