Ipswich Town Looking To Take David Ngog On Loan From Liverpool


New Ipswich Town boss Roy Keane reportedly has his sights set on under-utilised Liverpool striker David Ngog.

According to News of the World, the ex Manchester United boss is hoping to convince Rafa Benitez to loan out the 20-year-old, who has barely got a look-in at Anfield since his £1.5 million move from Paris Saint-Germain last summer.

Keane has made a new forward his first priority as Jon Stead, Pablo Counago and Kevin Lisbie are currently the only recognised strikers at Portman Road.

Reports suggest that Ipswich scouts were at the recent Toulon tournament to watch the France under-21 international first-hand and that the Irish manager has now decided to make a move for him based on their reports.

Despite barely playing him last season, Benitez recently went on record as saying that he is convinced Ngog will go on to become an important player for Liverpool.
