Keane Photographed on Hungarian Trip - Ipswich Town News

Blues boss Roy Keane was photographed by a Hungarian newspaper at Saturday's Honved-Debreceni match. On Saturday TWTD was first to reveal that the new Town manager was in Budapest eyeing Hungarian international striker Gergely Rudolf.

As we reported, Keane was at the Bozsik Stadion to check out the 24-year-old frontman and his visit was captured by Hungarian newspaper Blikk.

Whether Keane was impressed by Rudolf remains to be seen however, with Blikk only deeming his performance worthy of five marks as his side won 1-0 to keep their championship bid well on course.

Rudolf is likely to have been identified by scouts Simon Hunt and Steve McCall, who we understand spent much of the second half of the season looking at potential summer targets in eastern Europe.
