Cardiff City are scouring the world for new talent.


They have brought in players from Poland plus Trinidad and Tobago on trial.

Centre-forward Jakob Cubrala, 17, is training with the Bluebirds for a second week, having linked up with Cardiff from Polish club Swit.

Cubrala is a 6ft 3ins forward who is out of contract with his club later this month.

The Bluebirds have also brought in Jason Marcano and teenager Lester Peltier - who has a trial with Arsenal on Thursday - for a few days.
 
Both are from San Juan Jabloteh FC in Trinidad and Tobago and have also spent time with Millwall.

Former England, Queens Park Rangers and Spurs defender Terry Fenwick has accompanied Marcano and Peltier from T & T, while they are represented by Cardiff-based agent Paul Mohammed.

"They are two of the biggest talents in Trinidad and Tobago," said Fenwick, who works within the T&T Pro League.

"They have both had a fantastic season with Jabloteh and I'm sure that they will soon be knocking on the door of the Trinidad and Tobago national team.

'This is now a wonderful opportunity for these guys to go out and experience professional football outside of Trinidad and Tobago."

Both players have been playing for Jabloteh in the T&T Pro League and Marcano, 23, said: 'It is part of my dream to play in English football and I have been waiting for something like this.It's going to be hard with the change of weather, but these trials could make a big impact on my life,' said Marcano, voted the Most Improved Player in 2006 by Jabloteh.

Peltier, 18, has broken into the Jabloteh first team. He said: 'It's really cold in Britain, but I am ready for that.'
