Ex-England youth and schoolboy international Ducros has been used by Harriers both behind a front-two and in attack.

He was a record signing for £80,000 from Nuneaton Borough in July 2000 after only 12 months at the Conference side.

The diminutive Ducros, who grew up in Redditch, was previously at Coventry where he was mainly a reserve despite eight first-team appearances.

A clever and supremely talented player on the ball, he scored in the first game last season but faded from the scene after problems with fitness and form.

The time has come for Ducros to realise his potential in the final year of his contract.

League appearances/goals: Coventry (96/97) 5, (97/98) 3, Harriers (00/01) 34/2, (01/02) 14/2.

This season: 3 games.

Status: Substitute.
