Bialkowski Reveals January Interest - Ipswich Town News

Town keeper Bartosz Bialkowski has revealed that a number of clubs made enquiries for him during the January transfer window, although there were no firm bids.

The 29-year-old, who is contracted to the Blues until the summer of 2018 with the club having an option for a further season, was Town’s Player of the Year last season and has continued his impressive form during this campaign.

"There weren't any concrete offers in January but there were quite a few enquiries,” the Pole told Onet.pl.

"The transfer would have never happened anyway as my bosses were pretty clear about it: you're not for sale. We'll see what the future holds but I'm not stressing over it.

"I feel very good in Ipswich but I've also got my personal goals. I still dream about Premier League.”

Top flight clubs are understood to have been keeping tabs on the former Southampton and Notts County man and other Championship sides are also likely to be keen, while Bialkowski was interesting Chinese clubs in January 2016.
