ABERDEEN have offered a trial to English beanpole striker Harry Smith.

Smith, 20, plays for non-league Folkestone Invicta and has grabbed a stunning 11 goals in 10 games this season to help his club to the Ryman League Division South title.

The 6ft 5in attacker’s record is all the more remarkable as six of his appearances came from the bench.

He has also been at Chelsea, Brentford and Gillingham as a youngster and his Folkestone boss Neil Cugley reckons Smith can go far.

Earlier this year Cugley was asked about Smith told the Folkestone & Hythe Express: “He’s got a real chance if he can carry this on. Clubs are going to look at him.

“He’s got a goal a game, he’s 6ft 6in and people like big centre-forwards but he’s got a good touch and good movement as well.

“He’s not just an aerial threat. His goals (can be of) high quality.

“Being that size helps but it’s not just his size. I still think he’d be a good player if he was 5ft 8in.”

Aberdeen believe Smith could be a good addition to next season’s Development Squad.

A club spokesman said: “Harry has been invited to the club for a couple of days with a view to permanent move for the development squad.”
