Town chairman David Sheepshanks says that the Blues are still hopeful of securing Sixto Peralta for next season, but adds that no players will be coming in until some have left Portman Road.

Sheepshanks said: "There is still a possibility that we'll bring Sixto Peralta to the club on a loan arrangement.

"However, we are not able to commit Ipswich Town to any signings, or loans, until the necessary transfer activity is completed. Hopefully that situation will happen soon.

With the Titus Bramble to Newcastle deal on hold for perhaps as long as a few weeks and Matt Holland, one of the most likely players to leave, on holiday, it could be a while before new faces are seen at Portman Road.
