Richie Towell was the Airtricity / SWAI Player of the Month for August last year but will he still be at Oriel Park by the end of this summer?
Dundalk midfielder Richie Towell has been linked with a move away from Oriel Park in today’s Irish Independent.
As part of a feature on the top 50 transfer targets this summer, the 23-year-old features in number 42 with the paper claiming interest from Wigan, Burnley and Ipswich Town.
The Indo speculate a price tag of €350,000, having described Towell as the League of Ireland’s best player. They insist that it is just a matter of whether the deal happens now or at the end of the Irish season.
Ipswich boss and former Ireland manager Mick McCarthy was at Oriel Park earlier this month for the club’s Europa League fixture against Jeunesse Esch leading to speculation that Towell may be on his way to Portman Road.
