Released Town defender Drissa Diallo says he is keen to remain in English football. The Guinean international, along with Spanish striker Pablo Couñago, was told at the end of last month that he will not be offered a new deal at Portman Road.
Diallo said: "I want to stay in England and am prepared to bide my time.
"It was very disappointing to be told that I was not required any more by Ipswich.
"A decision was made and in football you have to take it on the chin and get on with life.
"The manager paid a nice tribute to me that I appreciated and in some ways I am looking forward to a new challenge."
The former Burnley man, who has spent much of his career in Belgium, is confident he will find a club at Championship level: "My record with Ipswich speaks for itself.
"Last season I played in every game prior to getting injured in December - and we lost just three times.
"If I had stayed fit all season I am sure I would still be an Ipswich player next season."
