Newcastle hand extended trial to non-league prospect Isaac Westendorf

Newcastle United have handed an extended trial to non-league prospect Isaac Westendorf.

The 19 year-old is a free agent and featured for Newcastle U23s yesterday. He played for Barking FC last season.

ChronicleLive says Westendorf came off the bench during the U23s derby last night between Newcastle and Middlesbrough at St James' Park, which the Magpies won 4-1. Westendorf only played half an hour but made a mark.

With academy boss Steve Harper in the stands, Westendorf put the ball in the net, but the goal was ruled out due to being out of play in the build up. Another effort was saved, while another cross which he looked destined to put away was instead finished by Boro defender Cain Sykes in his own goal.
