Knights Set for Torquay? - Ipswich Town News
Striker Darryl Knights is reportedly a loan target of Torquay United. The Gulls are managed by former Town skipper Ian Atkins.
Atkins has watched Knights in action for Town's reserves and is also claimed to have shown an interest in defender Chris Casement.
Knights scored twice in Monday's 3-1 second string victory over Southend and also notched a brace in last week's win at Felixstowe and Walton by the same scoreline.
Boss Jim Magilton is keen for young players like Knights, Casement, Sammy Moore, Jaime Peters and Scott Barron to go out on loan to play games and get some senior experience.
