Posh Pair Continuing Town Talks - Ipswich Town News

Posh pair George Boyd and Paul Taylor are at Town and are continuing to hold talks regarding their £2 million switch to the Blues. The duo were scheduled to undergo medicals at Portman Road this afternoon - with some sources reporting that they have now passed them - having travelled from Peterborough to negotiate their moves earlier today.

We understand that personal terms are yet to be confirmed but that the pair were set to have their medicals while their representatives held discussions with the club regarding the terms of their Town contracts.

The Blues had a joint offer accepted for the pair on Monday with Peterborough having transfer-listed them as they are out of contract next summer and had refused to sign new deals.

Town are also looking to complete the season-long loan signing of Daryl Murphy from Celtic with manager Paul Jewell also hopeful he can get other deals done - one presumably another centre-half - before Friday's 11pm deadline.

Speaking last night, Jewell said: "We’re trying to bring in not just those three, but we’re trying to bring one or two others in as well."
