De Vos Link - Ipswich Town News

Town are being linked to Canadian international defender Jason De Vos. The 26-year-old is currently at Dundee United and would probably cost Town around £1.5 million mark. The defender is 6'4" tall and cost Dundee United £400,000 when he joined them two years ago. Town Chief Scout Colin Suggett is believed to rate De Vos very highly and has apparently been watching him since his spell with Darlington prior to his move to Scotland.

Richard Naylor has suffered a slight setback in his recovery from his knee operation. The striker's left knee is swelling up, but it is thought that a couple of days rest should see him back on the right track.

Rar Crawford will be the guest of honour at the August 22nd unveiling of the Sir Alf Ramsey statue. He will unveil the statue, to be situated on the corner of the Portman Road and Sir Alf Ramsey Way at midday.

Town reserves play a friendly at Canvey Island on Tuesday.
