Leif Davis 2.0: Ipswich could target “swashbuckling” star at PL club
As much as Ipswich Town fans will love getting carried away about the millions their club are currently splurging out on to pick up top new stars for the Premier League, they will know that there are a number of excellent performers already present in Suffolk who deserve a crack at the top-flight.
Leif Davis is certainly one of those that falls into the latter bracket, having torn Championship defences apart from left-back last season, on the way to an unbelievable promotion being achieved.
Kieran McKenna could look towards the success story of Davis, who was once a discarded product of the Leeds United academy, as grounds to go after an out-of-sorts target, in a bid to breathe life back into his stuttering career.
Ipswich could go after wantaway Spurs defender
According to Lilywhite Rose podcast contributor John Wenham, Ipswich could be one of a number of clubs down the line that starts to show an interest in Spurs defender Djed Spence, after the ex-Nottingham Forest loanee saw a permanent move to Genoa pass him by.
Wenham stated that he suspects Premier League interest might emerge for the wantaway 23-year-old soon, who has really struggled to make an impact in North London since joining in 2022, with three dire loan spells away from Ange Postecoglou’s men coming his way.
How Spence could be Ipswich’s next Davis
Leeds United allowed Spence to leave early from his loan stint last season after he failed to impress – playing just seven games – but Ipswich have been able to turn unwanted players from West Yorkshire into superb gems when they relocate down to Suffolk, with Davis the main glowing example.
