Former Yeovil Town midfielder Alex John is reportedly on trial at SPL side Dundee FC

According to “Not The Old Firm”, the 20-year-old is heading north of the border after leaving Huish Park at the end of the 2020/21 season.

John had attracted interest from Hull City, signing a loan deal in January 2020 before returning at the end of that season.

Injury prevented John from being a part of the squad throughout the following season.

The Wales Under 19 international failed to make any competitive appearances for the Glovers but was a regular in match-day squads and played in multiple friendlies.

All the best at Dundee, Alex.

Reuben Reid and Albi Skendi will be at Yeovil Town next season after the club confirming that options in their contract had been triggered.

In an update on players issued on Friday, the club also confirmed that midfielder Emmanuel Sonupe is out of contract with no indication he will be retained, which suggests he has not been.

Lawson D’Ath has been invited to continue his rehabilitation at Huish Park.

Matt Worthington has been offered a new deal but is yet to sign it and it appears youngster Alex John has been let go after his contract expired.

The updated added: “Discussions are underway with individuals from the above out of contract and loan lists.”

This would suggest the possibility of a return for goalkeeper Adam Smith and full-back Michael Kelly, who were released by Forest Green Rovers and Bristol Rovers respectively at the end of last season.
