The 22-year-old appeared for the Imps in a 2-0 reserve-team defeat against Middlesbrough at Sincil Bank on Wednesday and impressed coach Scott Lindsey.[LNB]"Connor looked very strong, good in the air and good on the ball. He has a good pedigree having started out at Leicester and has gone on to play in non-league which is also a good pedigree, but we need to see more of him," said Lindsey, who revealed the club are also keen to look at more trialists in the coming weeks.[LNB]"We found out about Connor through (youth team manager) Grant Brown's contact with the Hinckley manager Dean Thomas, and he spoke about him and a couple of other players. We are also keen on looking at a right-back and a forward."[LNB]Goalkeeper Mateus Esterhazy and right-back Morgan Suric were two other trialists that also featured for the reserves against Middlesbrough.[LNB][LNB]
