Brighton Could Recall Walton - Ipswich Town News
Brighton and Hove Albion will reportedly look to recall keeper Christian Walton from the Blues in January in order to sell him to a Championship club.
Walton joined Town in August and has established himself as the number one at Portman Road, making 14 appearances up to now.
However, according to The Sun on Sunday, the Seagulls will look to utilise their option to recall the 26-year-old in January in order to cash in on him by selling him to a Championship with his contract up in the summer when he can depart for nothing.
If the report is correct, then Town will almost certainly be keen to recruit Walton on a permanent basis after an impressive first few months at Portman Road.
Former Everton and Scotland defender David Weir, who works as player pathway manager at Brighton and monitors the progress of their loan players, was at yesterday's 1-1 draw at Wigan.
