Weekend Squad - Ipswich Town News
Town have announced the squad for the weekend games against West Ham and Chelsea. Top reserves scorer Darren Bent has been called up after another goal for the second string in the 3-0 win at Derby earlier in the week.
With the exception of Titus Bramble the squads are identical. Bramble is not available for the match at West Ham as he is having an injection on his ankle injury, but he is included for Chelsea.
Injury worries Sixto Peralta and Jermaine Wright are both likely to be fit while Fabian Wilnis will start at West Ham in place of the injured Chris Makin.
Finidi George missed training with a back strain this morning but is likely to be OK for the weekend games.
Also in the squad is Ulrich Le Pen who impressed in last week's reserve game against Coventry before being carried off with a twisted knee.
Squad: Sereni, Marshall, Wilnis, Clapham, Hreidarsson, McGreal, Venus, Gaardsøe, Holland, Magilton, Wright, Peralta, T Miller, George, Reuser, Stewart, M Bent, Armstrong, Couñago, D Bent and Le Pen.
