Shrews boss confirms Riza trial

The 29-year-old forward, who is without a club, has been training with Town for some time but is currently unable to play any competitive matches due to a four-month ban handed to him by the Turkish FA relating to his time at former club Trabzonspor.But Simpson has been impressed with the former Arsenal and West Ham man, telling Shrews' official website: "I remember Omer from before he went out to play in Turkey and at the time I was interested in him."He went over to Turkey to play, did really well and made it into the national side, but then a new manager came into his club side and he fell out of favour."It is a good opportunity to take a long look at a player with a good pedigree with a view for the long term."
