Town Linked With West Brom\'s Miller - Ipswich Town News
Town are one of a number of Championship clubs claimed to be interested in taking West Brom striker Ishmael Miller on loan. The Blues, Nottingham Forest, Leicester and Swansea are all said to be chasing the former Manchester City man.
Miller, 23, has made only one sub appearance for Albion this season having returned to action earlier in the year after 14 months out with a cruciate knee ligament injury, scoring twice at the end of the last campaign.
Baggies boss Roberto Di Matteo is said to be keen to send Miller out on loan to get games under his belt.
The Mancunian started his career with Manchester City before moving to West Brom on loan in August 2007, the two clubs making that move a permanent one for £900,000 the following January. More of a second striker than an out-and-out goalscorer, 6ft 3in tall Miller has netted 21 goals in 43 starts and 29 sub appearances for Albion.
Town boss Roy Keane revealed yesterday that he was speaking to a number of clubs regarding a potential loan signing, having previously indicated that he would be interested in adding another striker to his squad.
