Town Linked With Loan Move for Birmingham Full-Back - Ipswich Town News
Town are reported to be eyeing a loan move for Birmingham City right-back Josh Cogley.
Sky Sports are reporting that the Blues are lining up Cogley on loan with the Midlanders keen to send the 23-year-old out to play regular football.
Coventry-born Cogley came through the youth system at St Andrew’s and has made 11 senior starts and six sub appearances but only one brief game from the bench last season.
Right-back is an area where Town have seemed likely to make a signing this summer, loanee James Bree having departed at the end of last season along with Jordan Spence, who had played in that position during manager Paul Lambert’s first couple of months in charge.
Janoi Donacien was sent out on loan to his former club Accrington in January with Lambert viewing him more as a centre-half, although the St Lucia-born defender has played at right-back in pre-season. Josh Emmanuel is the Blues’ other current right-back option.
