Healy Again Linked With Hartlepool - Ipswich Town News
League One Hartlepool are again being linked with a move for Town midfielder Colin Healy. The Irishman was on the verge of joining Pools from Cork City last summer until the Blues matched their €100,000 (£70,000) bid and the 30-year-old signed for Town.
Hartlepool again made moves for Healy in January but were eventually priced out of a loan deal and the ex-Celtic and Sunderland man joined Falkirk, with whom he spent the second half of the season.
Healy, who has a year left on his contract, is understood to be amongst the Town players to have been told that they have no future at the club and the Blues are likely to allow him to move on a free transfer.
Claims of renewed Hartlepool interest comes as little surprise given their previous attempts to sign the Cork-born midfielder.
