Ipswich take former Tottenham, Portsmouth defender Rocha on trial

Ipswich Town have taken Portuguese defender Ricardo Rocha on a week-long trial.

The 33-year old ex-Tottenham man departed Portsmouth at the end of last season and is now hoping to win a contract at Portman Road.

Tractor Boys boss Paul Jewell confirmed the trial for Rocha, who has had previous spells with Braga, Benfica and Standard Liege, but did not elaborate on a potential contract.

"Ricardo is here for the week and we will take it from there," was all Jewell told the club's official website.
