Club Confirm Scales Medical Tue 04th Jul 2000 20:31
Town have confirmed that John Scales had a medical at Portman Road today and will announce the result tomorrow. Scales himself has been saying how much he relishes the opportunity Town have given him: "The thought of living and playing in London by joining Wimbledon was a mouth-watering one. It was where I started my career and I have great respect for their manager Terry Burton. But the pull of the Premiership is a strong one. I've played more than 500 games in my career, the majority in the top flight and I want to stay there. I hope this initial one-year deal will be the start of an even longer career with Ipswich. This is an exciting opportunity for me."

John Scales will be in Ipswich tomorrow for a medical. The former Liverpool, Tottenham and Wimbledon man, available on a free, looks certain to sign a one year deal.

Ipswich are a good club and it looks as though I may be heading in that direction." Scales is likely to be a squad player rather than coming straight into the first team. Town consider him a bit of a gamble after injuries restricted him to just 40 games in his time at Tottenham. However, Scales himself is confident that his fitness is up to scratch.

Town would look for a fee of £4 million and above for the full international keeper transfer-listed this week. One report claims that Alex Manninger may come to Town as a make-weight in a deal for Wright, although this seems to be pure press speculation. Celtic manager Martin O'Neill, linked with Wright despite his statement yesterday saying he had made no contact with club, player or agent Jonathan Barnett, looks likely to monitor the situation.
