RHYS SARSON, who plays for the Cirencester Town U14s team, has been offered a six-week trial with the Bristol City FC Academy.
Rhys has been watched by a number of clubs this season, but Bristol City were the first to make an approach.
Rhys joined Cirencester as an 11-year-old after being released by his home town club side.
At Cirencester he was able to rebuild his confidence and he has since blossomed into a 40-goal-a-season striker.
His coach at Cirencester Town, Arthur Jupp, said: "Rhys is a great example of what can be achieved when turning adversity into an opportunity.
"We will miss our skipper and top goal scorer enormously, but I could not be happier for Rhys and his family, and we wish him well on his exciting new journey.”
If you think you could follow in Rhys' footsteps, contact Arthur Jupp at Cirencester Town on 07730 487080 as they begin the process of assembling next season's Junior Premier League U15s squad.
