Town Linked With Vincent-Young Approach - Ipswich Town News
Town are reported to have made an approach to Colchester United for former trialist Kane Vincent-Young.
The Blues were linked with the full-back over the weekend, now, according to Football Insider, Town have contacted the U’s regarding the 23-year-old.
Vincent-Young spent time on trial with the Blues during pre-season ahead of 2018/19 but wasn't offered a deal and ended up signing a new two-year contract at Colchester.
Last week the one-time Tottenham academy youngster was linked with moves to Championship sides Luton and Charlton but their transfer deadline passed with Vincent-Young still at the JobServe Community Stadium.
The Camden-born defender, who had a spell with Banbury early in his career, is primarily a right-back but also operates on the other flank.
Right-back is understood to be one of the areas where manager Paul Lambert is looking for one of his three additions prior to the League One window closing on September 2nd.
It’s likely to U’s would want a fee for Vincent-Young but with funds known to be in short supply at Portman Road.

Blackburn Rovers 1-0 Ipswich Town - Match AbandonedTown look set to face a return trip to Blackburn Rovers later in the season after this afternoon’s game was abandoned after 80 minutes due to a waterlogged pitch with the home side 1-0 up and with the Blues down to 10 men. Jacob Greaves was shown a straight red card four minutes after the break for hauling down Yuki Ohashi, then Rovers skipper Todd Cantwell netted a penalty on 59, but the heavy rain had made the game increasingly farcical the longer it progressed and in the 80th minute referee Stephen Martin took the players off and then 25 minutes later abandoned it entirely.
