Steve Coppell has taken Trinidadian goalkeeper Kelvin Jack on trial at the club for the 2nd time.Jack was last at Reading in September 2001 and did impress ex Royals boss Alan Pardew at the time.But with his work permit problems now sorted out,this could be another new face to the Royals squad. Kelvin Who will be a question Royals supporters will be asking themselves?His name is really Kelvin Jack and he is from the Trinidad and Tobago.

If he is like our last Trinidad goalkeeper Shaka Hislop,then the man will become a Royals legend.

Well who is Jack?He is a 6ft 4 goalkeeper who weighs 220 pounds.His last club was CL Financial San Juan Jabloteh,but at the moment he is currently out of contract.

He has been on trial before in England and Reading wasn't the only club who have been interested.Walsall,Gillingham and Crystal Palace have all shown an interest while Aston Villa have been linked with the shot stopper.

Jack isn't playing in the Reserve Match against Aldershot Townn tonight due to International Clearence.
