    ......if we were interested in signing him.

    Gone back to Northern Ireland from Swindon with homesickness.

    States:

    They will also be without forward Jordan Stewart who has returned to Northern Ireland with homesickness.

    Power is looking to move him on in the January transfer window but if they cannot recoup the fee they paid for the 20-year-old then he says the player will be unable to play elsewhere.

    "In all my days of football I've never known anything like it," he said.

    "I'm surprised and when you think about it that it doesn't happen quite a bit. He was only moving from Northern Ireland and not Iraq, we are surprised and disappointed.

    "It was a fantastic opportunity for the kid. I think his dad came over for a couple of days and said he would quit his job.

    "Unless someone pulls up the money that we paid for him he doesn't play football for three years which is a shame for the boy and financially not great for the football club."
