Jim Confirms Miller Link - Ipswich Town News
Boss Jim Magilton has confirmed that he would be interested in re-signing former team-mate Tommy Miller if the midfielder decided to leave Sunderland. TWTD was first to report Miller's possible return to Portman Road for a third spell back in May.
Since then the story has been revived on a number of occasions, most recently yesterday by newspapers in the North-East.
Magilton told the club site that although he would be interested in signing the ex-Hartlepool man, he doesn't see a move happening quite yet: "Tommy is out of the whole set-up at Sunderland at the moment and is only playing reserves games there.
"His wife has just given birth to twins and his attentions are squarely with his family - and rightly so - so he is not going anywhere in the immediate future.
"We are always going to be linked with him, but certainly, if he did become available and wanted to move on, we would look seriously at bringing him back here."
Miller is out of contract at the Stadium of Light at the end of the season and the Black Cats would allow him to move on a free transfer. A January return to Portman Road continues to look to be very much on the cards.
