Gallagher Linked Again - Ipswich Town News
Town are reported to have recently shown renewed interest in Leicester striker or wideman Paul Gallagher.
The Blues were claimed to have made a £750,000 offer for the 28-year-old Scottish international in May but the bid was never confirmed.
Town boss Paul Jewell and chief scout Steve McCall are said to have shown interest since then but not within the last few weeks with other Championship clubs more in the hunt.
Gallagher’s value is now believed to be nearer the £500,000 mark with his only Foxes game so far this season the 4-2 Capital One Cup defeat to Burton Albion earlier in the week. He is contracted to Leicester until the summer of 2015.
