Balkestein Could Be Back for Swansea - Ipswich Town News
Defender Pim Balkestein is on the mend after the groin problem which kept him out of the last couple of first team squads. The Dutchman picked up the injury in training.
Physio Matt Byard told the club site: "Pim is stepping up his rehab and is now jogging.
â€ÂWe are looking at him being back in full training at the start of next week and it's possible he could be involved for the reserves against Southend on the Tuesday.
"If that all goes well, then hopefully we can look at him being available for the Swansea game."
