Horlock Off to NZ? - Ipswich Town News
Midfielder Kevin Horlock is considering an offer from an unnamed club in New Zealand in addition to the two-year deal with Doncaster Rovers TWTD revealed last week. Horlock is currently back at Portman Road while his representatives discuss his future with the interested parties.
Horlock has spent the last month on loan at the Earth Stadium and has also interested Oldham Athletic.
Town themselves are unlikely to make any more moves in the transfer market before deadline day at the end of the month, other than the likely extension of Ricardo Fuller's loan when it expires on March 18th.
Polish trialist Paweł Król would not be able to join the Blues until the transfer window opens in the summer even if he impresses in his spell with the club which starts today.
