Joe Made Kenna Enquiry Friday, 6th Feb 2004 13:17
Town boss Joe Royle has admitted he made an enquiry regarding Birmingham s Jeff Kenna but, with the Irish international back in favour at St Andrew s, he expects him to remain with Steve Bruce s club.
Royle said: “He s someone I ve asked about but he s in their first team at the moment, so that s unlikely.”
The Town manager s targeting of a loan full-back since Fabian Wilnis s injury does not mean he has given up on the short-term signing of a striker: “I m still pursuing a couple of players I d like to bring in on loan. We are down to the 16 in the squad for tomorrow and three more on top of that.
Kenna Latest Link Friday, 6th Feb 2004 10:47
Birmingham s Jeff Kenna is the latest player to be linked with a loan move to Town. Yesterday the Blues were unsuccessful in their attempt to lure Wolves full-back Oleg Luzhny to Portman Road on a month s loan.
Kenna can play at both right and left-back which may attract him Town, the Blues currently short of cover on either side of defence.
However, Steve Bruce is unlikely to allow him to leave St Andrew s, the 33-year-old having recently been a regular in his first team.
