Man Utd trialist Olowu agrees Doncaster terms

Joseph Olowu has left Manchester United and signed with Doncaster Rovers.

The Manchester Evening News says Doncaster have signed the former Arsenal defender following a trial period, although the club has not yet officially confirmed his arrival.

Olowu has been pictured holding a Rovers shirt and posing for photographs, suggesting that the deal is done. It is claimed that he has signed a short-term contract at the Keepmoat Stadium until January.

After being released by Arsenal at the end of last season, the 21-year-old joined United on trial at the start of August. He featured in pre-season matches for the Under-23s against both Kidderminster Harriers and Sheffield Wednesday, plus Premier League 2 fixtures against both Chelsea and Manchester City, but was not offered terms by United for him to stay at the club and put down roots.
