Town have confirmed the recall of midfielder Idris El Mizouni from Cambridge United.
As reported yesterday, the 20-year-old was left out of the League Two side’s 18 for their 2-1 victory at Grimsby with his return to Portman Road expected to follow.
The Tunisia international had been unable to establish a place in the side in his second spell at the Abbey Stadium, making seven starts - three in the league - and eight sub appearances.
Meanwhile, Town have been short of midfielders in recent weeks due to injuries.
El Mizouni moved to Cambridge, who he spent a successful loan stint with last season, in September on what was projected to be a season-long loan. However, the Blues were able to cut the spell short once the January window opened.
The Paris-born schemer returns to the club with immediate effect and will be available for next Saturday’s live Sky game against Swindon Town at Portman Road.
