U19s Face Canaries - Ipswich Town News

Town's U19s face Norwich City in an East Anglian derby at the Canaries' Colney training ground on Saturday morning (KO 11am).

The academy side will want to add another victory to their impressive 2-1 win against Leeds in the FA Youth Cup on Monday.

They face Sunderland at home in the next round in a game which must be played prior to the end of January.

Midfielder Adem Atay recently made his debut for the Turkish U21 B side in a 4-1 friendly win against Canada.

The Cambridge-based player was in Istanbul on the day of the HSBC and British Consolare bombings.

Atay can play for both England and Turkey and was on schoolboy terms with Galatasaray when in his early teens.
