Former Town boss Roy Keane says he is hugely disappointed to be leaving Portman Road. The Irishman was told that his time with the Blues was at an end yesterday via a phone call from club owner and chairman Marcus Evans.
Chief executive Simon Clegg says he hopes to appoint Town’s new manager in the coming days. Clegg was speaking at a Portman Road press conference this morning where he confirmed Roy Keane’s exit from the club.
Wolves have confirmed the exits of their chief scout Dave Bowman (pictured) and European scout Ian ‘Taff’ Evans. Yesterday, there was speculation in the West Midlands press that the duo could be on their way to join their old boss Mick McCarthy at Portman Road.
Bristol City boss Keith Millen says he’s hopeful of signing Town striker Jon Stead. The Robins have been chasing the 27-year-old for some weeks now and have agreed a £225,000 fee with the Blues.
Chief executive Simon Clegg says boss Roy Keane will be given the cash to sign the right player at the right price before any unwanted members of his squad are moved on. However, Clegg says no deals are currently imminent.
