Collins Still Training With Town - Ipswich Town News
Former West Ham central defender James Collins is continuing to train with the Blues.
As TWTD revealed, the 35-year-old free agent joined up with the Town squad last week and took part in training for a couple of days.
Collins returned to Playford Road earlier today but with no decision yet made on whether he will be joining the Blues.
Despite the transfer window being closed, clubs are still able to sign players who are free agents.
Aston Villa were linked with the former Wales international, who was previously with them between 2009 and 2012, last week, while The Telegraph claimed over the weekend that Collins has been waiting to see whether the Midlanders firm up their interest.
