Pitchero Non League

Johnson Hippolyte

...from Evo-Stik League Southern Division One Central side Burnham.

The youngster, who has been targeted by the likes of Hayes & Yeading United, Chesham United, Slough Town and Wealdstone, featured for the Magpies during their friendly with Aldershot Town reserves on Monday.

And although nothing has yet been signed, United boss Johnson Hippolyte is confident of completing a deal.

He said: “We’ve been speaking to Harry and I think it can happen.

“I think he wants to come but we don’t want to leave Burnham in the lurch as they have a few injuries at the moment.

“So we might look to do something with them on a dual registration for now.

“We’ll speak to them over the next week or two and see what happens.”

Hippolyte added: “He came down and played a part in Monday’s game and we thought he did well.

“He came on for the second half and showed some good touches.

“We liked what we saw from the lad. He looks a good player.”
