Icelander Not Targeted - Ipswich Town News

George Burley has said he is not targeting Icelandic international Ivar Ingimarsson, but says he has a number of summer targets already in mind. However, he admits that the summer will see more sales than buys.

Burley described claims that Ingimarsson was a Town target as "news to him" and is looking to bring in cash over the next few weeks: "The reality of the situation is that we have been relegated and we need to generate money going into the new season as a First Division club.

"We are keeping all our options open at this stage but, if we receive offers for players, we are in no position not to listen to them."

Despite Burley saying he intends to hold on to skipper Matt Holland he admits that every player has his price, and Holland could potentially leave over the summer, however much Burley wants him to stay.
