Wright Out? - Ipswich Town News

Town boss Joe Royle has admitted that it is going to be difficult to keep midfielder Jermaine Wright at Portman Road. The former Crewe, Wolves and Millwall man is one of nine senior players out of contract.

Royle has previously said he wants to keep Wright but may not be able to match terms which may be on offer from other clubs: "Jamma is going to be a hard one.

"He is a player who has been on one of the larger contracts from the club's time in the Premiership."
