Town Scout at U21 Championship - Ipswich Town News
Town scout David Hamilton has been spotted taking in games at the UEFA European U21 Championship in Denmark this week. In February, TWTD revealed that Hamilton, who previously worked with Paul Jewell at Derby and Wigan, had joined the Blues staff.
While Connor Wickham’s England U21 team-mates are beyond Town’s means, players in action for other nations who might catch the eye could well be within Jewell’s summer budget.
Wickham will hope to be involved when England take on Ukraine in their second group game on Wednesday in Herning having drawn 1-1 with Spain in their opening game with the Blues striker left on the bench (Sky Sports One/HD1 7pm).
