Keane Eyeing Former Players - Ipswich Town News
TWTD understands that Town boss Roy Keane was expected to watch tonight’s Norwich City-Sunderland Carling Cup tie at Carrow Road to run the rule over one or two of his ex-players.
Nyron Nosworthy and Carlos Edwards were the players most likely to be interesting the Blues boss from the much-changed Black Cats starting line-up.
Daryl Murphy, who the Blues have been trying to sign for much of close season, was amongst the Sunderland subs and came on in the second half, while midfielder Andy Reid may also have caught Keane’s eye with two goals as Steve Bruce’s side defeated the Canaries 4-1.
Central defender Nosworthy and right midfielder/right-back Edwards have both been linked with Town on a number of occasions over the summer, having been key members of Keane’s Sunderland side.
Town’s Alex Bruce was present at the game to watch his father’s side in action.
