Keeper on Trial - Ipswich Town News

Town have announced that three trialists will take the field tonight in their first pre-season match taking place at Helmond Sport. Possibly of most interest is keeper Marian Kello who is out of contract with his former club Hearts.

Aston Villa were strongly tipped to sign Kello but with Guzan recently signing a new contract, it would appear that Town are favourites to sign the Slovakian glovesman.

Also on trial are Frenchmen Plaisir Bahamboula and Soualio Bakayoko who have been with the club for a week.

Jewell told the club site "They have both done well and we will see how things go. With Marian, Aston Villa were keen on him and he's a free agent.

"He's come over to spend the week with us in Holland and we will take it from there.

"He will get a game tonight as will the two other trialists."
