Another Move for Verheyen - Ipswich Town News
With the weekend's offer to Club Brugge of around the £1 million mark turned down by the Belgians Town may look to put in an improved offer. Brugge commercial manager, Antoine Vanhove, said of the original Town offer: "Ipswich's offer is less than £1.75 million and I have told them that the answer is no. It is possible that they will offer more but we don't want to release Verheyen. We have already sold Fadiga and Deflandre and we don't want to lose our best players. We have our own ambitions." So it looks like £1.7 million will be the cost of getting the player, who scored two goals at the weekend as Brugge won 5-2 against KV Mechelen. Verheyen himself seems keen on Town's wooings: "Ipswich Town's interest is serious. I don't just want to leave it. I will talk to Vanhove about the situation in the next few days."
Looks like Mr Sheepshanks may have a busy week.
