Drogheda star Stephen Bradley has confirmed that both Fulham and Reading have offered him trials in England.
The former Arsenal trainee is building an impressive reputation in Ireland after being released by The Gunners earlier in his career.
The 21-year-old is currently out of contract with the Irish outfit, and as such has been approached by Premiership outfit Fulham and Championship leaders Reading.
Steve Coppell's Royals have already recruited both Shane Long and Kevin Doyle from across the Irish sea this season, and Bradley confirmed that The Royals, along with Chris Coleman's Fulham, have offered him a trial.
However, the midfielder also insists he is not ready to move to England for the sake of it, especially with European football to look forward to with his current employers.
"Fulham watched me in a recent game against Bohemians and then asked me to go over for a week or two of training," Bradley told The Irish Sun.
"It would allow them to have a look at me and me to have a look at their setup. Reading have made a similar offer.
"I have not spoken to manager Paul Doolin about it yet but I am out of contract as of now so I would be free to go.
"If the right offer comes along I would go, but I don't want to go back just for the sake of going back.
"Drogheda have Uefa Cup football to look forward to and hopefully they can challenge for the league.
"I don't think it would be a good option for me to go to a lower division club."
