Ipswich are eyeing Stoke City defender Danny Higginbotham.

The Sentinel says reports from East Anglia claim Roy Keane wants to renew his links with Higginbotham as he looks to shake-up Ipswich Town following his recent appointment as manager.

But Higginbotham is unlikely to entertain a move eastwards unless Stoke recruit a left-back to replace him over the summer.
