Hladky Offered Burnley Deal - Ipswich Town News

Former Blues keeper Vaclav Hladky is reported to have been offered a two-year deal by Championship Burnley, but is tipped to join Jablonec in Czechia.

Hladky, 33, left Town at the start of the month having been unable to agree terms on a new deal.

According to iSport.cz, the Clarets made Hladky a two-year contract on better terms than were on offer at Portman Road.

However, they report it’s likely he could instead end up at Czech top-flight side Jablonec, despite the deal there being worth less than the Turf Moor terms.

Burnley are in need of a new keeper with Arijanet Muric close to joining the Blues in a deal worth £8 million plus £2 million in top-ups.

Hladky is understood to have turned down the chance to join Banik Ostrava, while Slavia Prague have also been linked.

Elsewhere, Town are among a number of clubs linked with a potential season-loan loan move for Venezia midfielder Tanner Tessmann should the US international join Inter Milan, as is expected to be the case.

The 22-year-old is also claimed to have loan interest from Feyenoord.

Meanwhile, ex-Town striker Joe Pigott, 30, has returned to AFC Wimbledon, his club prior to his spell with the Blues, on a season-long loan from Leyton Orient.
