Keane Weighing Up Loan Decisions - Ipswich Town News

Town boss Roy Keane says he will look to make decisions on the loan players whose spells are due to end in January towards the end of this month. Gianni Zuiverloon, Jack Colback, Jake Livermore and Darren O'Dea’s spells are up just after the new year, while Rory Fallon’s initial loan runs to January 22nd.

Keane told the club site: "I would expect we would have sorted things out in the next few weeks, towards the end of December.

"There is a lot that can happen in the next few weeks though before making decisions on the boys. First of all we have to get permission from the clubs to keep the players. Then do the boys want to stay? Can we get them minutes on the pitch? We have to weigh all that up before making decisions.

"As much as we might want to keep them, if they are not playing games every week, they might not want to stay. There are a lot of decisions to be made over the next few weeks. It's going to be a hectic period."

Reserves full-back Seb Dunbar’s contract runs until January, having already been extended in September, and Keane says he will speak to the academy graduate regarding his future in the next few weeks.
