Some of Town s promising youngsters may spend time with Champions League side Monaco as part of a new exchange arrangement between the two clubs. Midfielder Jimmy Juan s trial with the Blues is the first result of the new tie-up.
Lincoln City chairman Rob Bradley has denied that his club and Town are about to announce a link-up. A rumour has been doing the rounds suggesting that this might be the case with Town having first refusal on promising Lincoln players and young Blues spending loan spells at Sincil Bank.
Town boss George Burley says the arrangement Town are planning to forge with Norwegian club Odd Grenland is just one of several informal link-ups they are involved in throughout Europe.
