American goalkeeper Chris Konopka is hoping he can make a positive impression when he trials with Polish club Jagiellonia Bialystok.

The 25-year old New Jersey native has spent the past three season in the League of Ireland with Bohemian FC, Sporting Fingal and Waterford United, but has been invited by Bialystok to undergo a week's trial which he admits he is excited about.

"I'm very excited to be here," Konopka told MLSsoccer.com. "Bialystok is on top of the league right now, and it's a very, very well-run club. It's as professional as it comes. The chance to impress the coaching staff here is an honor and I'm looking to make something of it.

"I'd definitely like the opportunity to sign here."
