Ipswich Town are keen to sign on-loan Manchester City defender Taylor Harwood-Bellis should they gain promotion to the Premier League.
According to The Sun, Ipswich Town could angle for a move for Manchester City’s 22-year-old prospect Taylor Harwood-Bellis should they gain promotion to the Premier League. The centre-back has been playing for rivals Southampton and could complete a permanent switch to St. Mary’s should they return to the top flight.
Ipswich Town keen on Taylor Harwood-Bellis
Taylor Harwood-Bellis could become the next player to leave Manchester City, with the club likely to cash in and make a handsome profit on their academy star. The 22-year-old prospect has been shining in the Championship on loan with Southampton, with the Saints hopeful of gaining a promotion.
Should they achieve that, they could trigger a clause in Harwood-Bellis’s contract and permanently sign him for £15 million. However, the defender could be on the market should the Saints remain in the Championship as he eyes a place in a Premier League club next season.
To offer that, Ipswich Town are now keen on the defender, with Kieran McKenna’s side one of the favourites for promotion to the top flight. They could only afford to sign the 22-year-old prospect if they are in the top flight next season and will hope Southampton fail in their quest to do so.
