Sittingbourne FC striker Joe Taylor waiting to hear if he has done enough to win contract with Swedish professional side Ostersunds

Joe Taylor is waiting to learn whether he is wanted by Swedish professional club Ostersunds.

The Sittingbourne striker, 22, flew home on Friday after completing a week-long trial with the Scandinavians.

Brickies joint-boss Matt Wyatt said: “We’re just waiting to hear if Ostersunds want to take their interest any further and hopefully we’ll get a call this week.

“Joe enjoyed the experience over there. He played a few games and thought it went all right. It was probably Joe’s dream as a child to be a professional footballer.

“It’s great for a young lad at 22 to have had the chance to be involved at a club in a different country and sample another culture.”

Taylor would have played for Brickies against Hastings last Saturday but for a waterlogged pitch at Woodstock.

The club's game at home to Chipstead on Tuesday was also postponed due to rain.

Brickies are due to visit Tooting & Mitcham on Saturday and play Ryman League, Division 1 South leaders Peacehaven in a rearranged home game on Tuesday.
