QPR Midfielder Henry Linked - Ipswich Town News
Town boss Mick McCarthy is reported to be considering bringing QPR midfielder Karl Henry to Portman Road in the summer.
According to The Sun, the Blues manager is weighing-up whether to make a move for his former Wolves skipper if the 33-year-old isn't offered new terms by the West Londoners with his current contract up at the end of the season.
Speaking earlier in the week Henry, who was amongst the Wolves players often linked with the Blues during the early days of McCarthy’s tenure at Town, said he was yet to hear whether he would be offered a new deal at Loftus Road.
"I'm sure I’ll knock on the door at some stage," he told Get West London. "My contract is up and, if they want me, I'd love to be a part of things. We'll see how the rest of the season goes and what they want to do. Fingers crossed I can be here next year.”
The Town squad would already appear to be well covered for combative central midfielders even if Henry, who has been a regular in the QPR side this season, were to become available in the summer.
