Fab: I'm Staying - Ipswich Town News
Veteran full-back Fabian Wilnis says he will sign his new one-year deal with Town. The 34-year-old joined the Blues from De Graafschap in 1999 for £200,000 and has made 250 appearances, scoring five goals.
Wilnis says a few points still have to be settled but that he is happy to remain with Town: "There are one or two minor details to sort out, but I don't see any major problems.
"I would like to stay with Ipswich and think, and hope, that I will."
