"Overseas trials...

...Carney's initial contract expired at the end of the 2006 season, and after strong rumours linking a move to Romanian club FC Steaua Bucureşti [2], he was offered trials in Germany at Bundesliga side M?nchengladbach and promoted second division club Alemannia Aachen.[3] Despite scoring twice in a trial match and being offered a deal by Aachen he decided against signing for the club, citing "the language factor" as the main reason for declining the move"..

That will be the fact that he can't speak English as a first language then...
