Braintree are waiting on Michael Crowe’s recovery from a knee injury before deciding whether to extend his loan spell into a second month.
The 20-year-old has played four games for the Vanarama National League side, keeping clean sheets in the last three.
"Michael has had a bit of a sore knee at the moment so we have been waiting on that,” Braintree manager manager Danny Cowley told the Braintree and Witham Times.
"We are hopeful that we’ll see him come back because he’s done very well for us, but we do have contingencies in place if he needs to stay at Ipswich.”
