Royle Confirms Alun Link - Ipswich Town News

Town boss Joe Royle has confirmed that his Coventry counterpart Gary McAllister made enquiries regarding Alun Armstrong last week. The former Boro man has been given a free transfer by Town.

Royle says that McAllister had a word while the striker was playing in the reserves last week: "I was at Highfield Road for the reserve game last week and at half time Gary McAllister spoke to me about Alun.

"He said he was the type of player he is interested in and I told him he is available, but I have heard nothing official."

Armstrong has also been linked with Leicester City.
