On-loan Manchester City winger Bersant Celina was back in training this morning, while strike pair Joe Garner and David McGoldrick were also at Playford Road although not joining in with the rest of the squad.
Celina missed Thursday’s Open Day and Saturday’s friendly at Charlton due to the illness bug which has hit the squad in pre-season, while McGoldrick was also ruled out of the trip to the Valley as he was unwell.
Garner suffered a shoulder injury when he was sent crashing as Andre Dozzell scored Town’s goal against the Addicks. The Blues are hopeful that all three will be available for Saturday’s season opener with Birmingham at Portman Road.
Already ruled out of Saturday's match are midfielder Emyr Huws (calf), Tom Adeyemi (illness), Teddy Bishop (groin) and Luke Hyam (ankle).
Meanwhile, the Blues are reported to have made a move for an unnamed Premier League striker, however, we understand that while Town are continuing their attempts to land another frontman before Saturday, no deal is currently close to being confirmed.
