Correia: Guiseley Perfect Place To Show What I Can Do

By Tom Feaheny

The forward has joined the National League side on a six-month loan from Sky Bet League One new boys Blackpool.

Raul Correia believes playing for Guiseley is his best platform to develop his game and make an impression, writes Tom Feaheny.

The Portuguese striker has impressed in a number of pre-season matches so far and knows it is an advantage that he is already settled with the club.

"I'm really pleased to be joining the club, I've played a few games with the lads in pre-season and I have enjoyed it all so far. Everyone has made me feel welcome it is a homely club.

"I'm excited by the players I will be on the pitch with and I feel I can develop partnerships, score goals and hopefully help Guiseley achieve their aims."

Last season after joining the now League One side he was an unused substitute on a number of occasions, he says it was crucial he joined a club where he gained game time, where he can show people what he has learnt.

"At the age I am at I want to play week in week out, develop my game, the manager has faith in me and I am thankful that this is the case.

"Being with professionals everyday has seen me adapt, I have learnt a lot and now I want to show the fans of this club what I can do."
