Academy Keepers Move Out on Loan - Ipswich Town News
Academy keepers Toby Egan and Jake Alley have moved out on loan.
Egan has joined Thurlow Nunn Premier Division Brantham Athletic on loan for the rest of the season.
"Following the release of Luke [Avenall] and the end of Callum [Robinson]'s loan from Stowmarket we had to move quickly to secure the services of Toby. Thank you to ITFC for their assistance," Brantham's first-team manager Michael Brothers said.
"Toby will commence training with us as soon as possible to settle him into the team as well as we can and as quickly as we can before our next fixture on 7th March at home to Wroxham."
Egan had previously been on loan with Haverhill Rovers. The 18-year-old joins Town midfielder Teddy Baker at Brantham, the midfielder having moved to the Blue Imps on loan earlier in the month.
Over the weekend, Alley, 18, joined BetVictor Isthmian North Division Felixstowe & Walton and made his debut in Saturday's 2-0 win at Brentwood.
