McNaughton Linked Again - Ipswich Town News
The tabloids again linked Town with Aberdeen defender Kevin McNaughton this weekend. However, it it is reported that Inter Milan have joined Town, Liverpool, Leeds and West Ham in targeting the Scottish U21 international.
Town were initially linked with McNaughton after George Burley watched his Aberdeen side beat Hibs 4-3 at Easter Road at the end of January.
The 19-year-old full-back is naturally right-footed, but has spent most of his career so far playing on the left of defence. He has attracted a great deal of attention from English Premiership clubs over recent months despite saying he was happy to stay in Scotland for the moment.
