Royals linked with Ipswich midfielder

Reading have been linked with a potential loan move for want-away Ipswich midfielder Jimmy Bullard.

Several reports have stated that the Royals could try and make a loan move for the 33-year old who has not started a league game since the 19th November away at Nottingham Forest. Since then, Bullard has only managed to get on the Ipswich bench.

www.twtd.co.uk/ stated that we would want Bullard before Saturday’s game at Middlesbrough. During last seasons transfer window, Reading also tried to steal an Ipswich target in Keith Andrews but the Republic of Ireland international decided to go to Premier League side West Brom.

Bullard is known to be a very energetic character and a good midfielder with decent dead-ball ability. He was also crucial in Fulham staying up and beating the Royals in the race for survival back in the 2007/08 season, as they stayed up on the final day.
