Crystal Palace trials for Derby defender Kyron Stabana

Derby County defender Kyron Stabana is trialling with Crystal Palace.

For the U23s', Stabana featured in the 2-1 win over Huddersfield Town on Friday.

The Croydon Advertiser says Stabana, who has spent time on loan at Boston United and Tamworth from Derby County this season, while he also recently featured for Barnsley on trial.

And the former England U17 international right-back was involved in the opening goal, as it was his shot that was parried into Rob Street's path by Huddersfield goalkeeper Joel Coleman, with the ball ricocheting off the Eagles striker and into the net from close range.

Stabana, who is the second right-back to feature on trial for Palace's U23 side in recent weeks, also showed his defensive capabilities at the other end, displaying positional sense and the ability to make a tackle.
