Waitakere United attacker Roy Krishna is one step from signing a professional contract with the Wellington Phoenix.

The talented 21 year old will join Phoenix when the team starts their pre-season build-up on May 4th.

Phoenix Coach Ricki Herbert said Roy spent a week with them last year and now they are taking a step further and giving him a chance to sign with them.

Waitakere Chairman Rex Dawkins has also worked closely with Labasa born Krishna and welcomes the opportunity afforded to his star player.
