Ex Apprentice and Ipswich Town Academy product Jordan Rhodes is on target to join the rest of the first team squad for the start of pre-season training at the beginning of July.
19 year old Rhodes missed the final month of the season after sustaining a broken metatarsal while on loan at Brentford.
Town physio Matt Byard told the Club’s offical website:
“As things stand he should be back for the start of pre-season training. He’s had an x-ray and is doing well.”
Elsewhere, Tractor boys midfielder Liam Trotter is set to reject a new deal with the Club in order to join Scunthorpe United, BBC Radio Humberside reports.
The 20-year-old has been offered a new contract by Ipswich boss Roy Keane but there are suggestions he is unhappy with the terms of the offer.
Trotter made 13 appearances for the Iron during a loan spell last season.
Keane told the club website he hopes Trotter’s future will be resolved soon.
He said:
“It’s that time at the moment when you have people away on holiday and we’ve also been involved in things like redeveloping the training ground but I expect it to be sorted out one way or another next week.”
Meanwhile, 19-year-old Ipswich midfielder Ed Upson has signed a new one-year deal.
