Town Face Opposition for Judge - Ipswich Town News
Town are facing opposition from Blackburn Rovers and Derby County as well as Charlton Athletic for ex-Notts County winger Alan Judge’s signature. The 24-year-old, who began his career at Ewood Park, is out of contract this summer having told the Magpies he is moving on.
Blackburn are currently caretaker-managed by Gary Bowyer, the Irishman’s youth coach from his days at their academy, however, we understand that Judge is keen on a move to Portman Road.
Talks have taken place with Town but the Blues are yet to make a formal offer of a contract to the one-time Plymouth Argyle loanee.
Judge confirmed that he was leaving Notts County after a three-year spell earlier in the month in order to step up a level, revealing that he had a number of clubs interested in signing him.
