Bristol City and Wolves Linked With Huws - Ipswich Town News
Bristol City and Wolves have reportedly joined Town in showing interest in Cardiff midfielder Emyr Huws, who enjoyed a successful loan spell with the Blues during the second half of 2016/17.
Town boss Mick McCarthy confirmed at the end of the season he’d like to bring Huws back to Portman Road next season, but according to the Daily Mail the Robins and Wolves are also keen, while we understand other Championship clubs kept tabs on the 23-year-old during his spell with the Blues.
Huws has another two years on his Cardiff contract but wasn’t in Bluebirds manager Neil Warnock’s plans prior to his January move to Town having made only two starts and two sub appearances.
The Wales international said in April that he had enjoyed his time at Portman Road having scored three goals in 13 starts and hoped a deal could be done in the summer.
Huws took a paycut to join Town on loan and his high wages could prove to be an obstacle as the Blues look to sign him on a permanent basis.
