Leicester Deny Eadie Approach - Ipswich Town News
Reports this afternoon claim that Leicester are denying a Town approach for ex-Norwich man Darren Eadie. This is the second time this summer that Eadie has been linked with Town and it seems that the former scourge of Town may be seriously being considered by George Burley and his staff.
Weekend reports suggested that Eadie was to move to Portman Road in a cash plus James Scowcroft deal. Peter Taylor has long been interested in Scowcroft and it seems to be fashionable to include a swap deal for Scowcroft in any link at the moment.
