All seven new recruits are in Town’s squad for Saturday’s final pre-season friendly at home to Wolves (KO 3pm). Striker Nathan Ellington is over the minor shoulder injury which led to him missing the abandoned game at Colchester on Tuesday.
The former Wigan man will join Michael Chopra, Aaron Cresswell, Lee Bowyer, Ãvar Ingimarsson, Jay Emmanuel-Thomas and David Stockdale in making their first appearances for the Blues at Portman Road.
A strong Wolves squad, fresh from beating Celtic 2-0 on Wednesday, travelled from the Midlands yesterday.
