Striker Jason Scotland has confirmed that Town have given him the green light to return to Swansea on loan, as revealed by TWTD last night. The Trinidadian, 32 next week, is frustrated by his lack of opportunities since Paul Jewell took over at Portman Road.
Scotland, who joined the Blues from Wigan for £750,000 in the summer, says he moved to Town to get games: "I went to Ipswich to play football and I'm not doing that. I am at that point in my career when I need to be playing, not sitting on the bench.
"The new manager has come in and I have not had a chance, but I feel I have a lot to contribute. I had a word with him and he is happy to let me go.
"If Swansea are interested in me, it would be great. I enjoyed the best time of my career there and it would be an easy decision for me."
Swans boss Brendan Rodgers has previously said that he would seriously consider bringing Scotland back to the Liberty Stadium if he became available.
Town would almost certainly want to line up a replacement before allowing the former St Johnstone and Dundee United man to move on with Tamás Priskin and youngsters Connor Wickham and Ronan Murray the only out-and-out strikers at the club.
Scotland enjoyed a hugely successful spell with the Swans between 2007 and 2009, scoring 53 goals in 91 starts and 14 sub appearances. He says he has watched his former club in action this season and believes he would slot straight back in and continue that impressive record.
The frontman says the ball is now in the Swans’ court:"If Swansea come calling then it would be an easy decision. I'm not interested in going to any other club. It's up to Swansea now to speak to Ipswich and make something happen."
