Dunfermline boss John Potter is interested in bringing former Celtic youth Paul George to East End Park after the winger impressed in the weekend’s Fife Cup tie.
Twenty-one-year-old George played as a trialist in the Pars’ 3-1 win over Cowdenbeath on Saturday and Potter admitted afterwards he would like to see a deal done if possible.
“He did very well – he’s an out and out winger and I thought he looked dangerous at times,” he said.
“He has probably not played and trained as much as the rest of us but he was a threat at times.
“It is something that we are going to look at in future and see if we can do something.
“The boy has ability, there is no doubt about that, so it is just about us to see if we can do something about it.”
Saturday’s Fife Cup semi-final doubled up as a benefit match for The Mia Brett Fund, set up to support Cowden defender Dean Brett after the loss of his partner Gemma from cancer last month.
More than 700 people were in attendance at Central Park and saw the Pars take the lead through Lewis Spence nine minutes before the break.
There were cheers from both sides in the second half when Brett netted the equaliser, but a goal by Gavin McMillan and a penalty from Allan Smith gave the Pars victory and a place against Raith in the final of the local competition.
