Dean Staying at Brighton? - Ipswich Town News
Brighton and Hove Albion boss Dean Wilkins says he is keen to keep Town striker Dean Bowditch at the Withdean Stadium beyond his initial one-month loan.
Wilkins says that the former England U19 international striker is yet to get his chance with the Seagulls: "It's been difficult for him - it's hard to break up our forward partnership.
"We've not brought him in to make up numbers. We are looking at it as more a long-term thing."
So far, Bowditch has scored one goal for the Brighton senior side in two sub appearances and has also netted once for the reserves.
