Mark Ashton, Chairman of Ipswich Town, has warned the applicants to striker Liam Delap that the tractor boys will not be “a simple club” this summer.
The 22 -year -old Delap impressed in the Premier League in the Premier League this season, scored ten goals and aroused interest in Chelsea and Manchester United, who both achieve lengthy strikers -shortlists before a hectic summer.
Potentially complicated things are a buyback clause that is held by former employers Manchester City and which were specified for the re -signing of their former jewels of the Academy for around 40 million GBP.
However, Ashton played all the concerns about the loss of the delap this summer and even went so far that the details of the City’s buyback clause were reported incorrectly.
“What I would say is that what was reported Ostnglian Daily Times.
“It would be a tear from me to talk about a single player. You know that I will say that. I can say that in January there was interest in a number of our players from a series of Premier League clubs. But ownership was great. It was” you don’t have to sell “.
“So see, we are not a simple club from which we can buy because we have such strong property. Obviously there is always a natural point where a player has to move. This is the life cycle, it is the soccer cycle. But we are very, very well protected with all of this.”
Ashton pressed the existence of a buyback clause for city in the city.
“No,” said the Ipswich boss when he emphasized that the players would only be sold at the conditions of the club. “Look, it would be the remissance of me to do that.
“Everything I would tell the fans is that hopefully a trust element has been built since the takeover. We know what we are doing and we are well protected.”
