Keane Off to Turkey - Ipswich Town News

Former Town boss Roy Keane is set for a return to management with Turkish side Kasimpasa, according to various reports. Elsewhere in this morning’s tabloids the Blues are linked with a loan move for a Manchester City midfielder, who has already moved on elsewhere.

Keane has been out of management since leaving Portman Road in January 2011 but is said to be on the verge of joining the Turkish top flight side, who are based in Istanbul, in the next couple of days.

Last week’s failed move for Blackpool-bound QPR striker DJ Campbell is reported in one of this morning’s papers, while Manchester City’s Abdul Razak — who impressed against Town while with Brighton last season - is claimed to be joining the Blues on loan, however, Charlton confirmed his signing yesterday.

Elsewhere, Town have paid Brentford £4,000 to formalise the signing of 14-year-old schoolboy Daniel Muamba, the younger brother of former Bolton man Fabrice, who has been with the academy for some while.
