Eats trendy fruits which could be fresher (5-4,7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

first-year student

'fresher' is the definition.
(a fresher is a first-year university student)

'eats trendy fruits which could be' is the wordplay.
'which could be' is an anagram indicator.
'eats'+'trendy'+'fruits'='eatstrendyfruits'
'eatstrendyfruits' is an anagram of 'FIRST-YEAR STUDENT'.

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
