Joe Waiting on Targets - Ipswich Town News

Town boss Joe Royle says he is in no hurry to make the loan signings he is planning to add to his squad. Royle says he knows who he wants and is waiting until they are available.

The Town boss is after one or possibly two players and could bring someone in before the Burnley game but says he won't be rushed: "I know who I want and I've been happy to wait until now. There are two players I have been showing an interest in but it's all about whether or not they will be available."

In the summer Town were close to bringing Arsenal's Justin Hoyte in on a season-long loan, however, the Gunners' failure to sign Ajax's Hatem Trabelsi scuppered the move.

England U21 international Hoyte, a central defender or full-back, may well be one of the players Royle is continuing to track.
