Falkirk Defender Move Still On - Ipswich Town News
Town’s move to Falkirk for left-sided central defender Murray Wallace is still very much alive, despite earlier reports that their offer had been turned down. The Blues are understood to have matched Brighton's bid of £300,000 plus the usual add-ons, while reports elsewhere claim Huddersfield have also now had their offer accepted.
The Seagulls have been given permission to speak to the 19-year-old but with the Blues — and probably others - also still very much in the hunt.
Town, Swansea, Charlton, Norwich and Newcastle were also all reported to have watched the one-time Rangers trainee in action over the Christmas period.
