Roberts a Loan Target for Trio - Ipswich Town News
Bradford City, Plymouth Argyle and the MK Dons are reported to have made loan offers to the Blues for Jordan Roberts.
According to HITC Sport, the three clubs have agreed terms regarding a loan with Roberts considering who to join. The Bantams and Pilgrims are both struggling at the bottom of League One, while the Dons are third in League Two.
Roberts, 25, joined the Blues in the summer on a free transfer after leaving Crawley Town at the end of last season.
The winger or striker rarely featured under Paul Hurst but was used as a number nine by Paul Lambert after he took over.
However, with Collin Quaner and Will Keane having been added to the squad during January, Roberts seems unlikely to be used in that role and a loan exit would be no surprise, Lambert having said that one or two fringe players will now be allowed to move away.
In total, Roberts has made six starts and six sub appearances for the Blues without scoring.
