3 centre-backs are worth targeting for Ipswich Town in light of the Manchester United transfer link.

Towards the conclusion of last week, Will Fish, a center-back for Manchester United, was connected to a number of teams, including Ipswich Town.

According to HITC, Ipswich Town is just one of the several parties showing interest in Fish. Championship teams Blackburn Rovers, Hull City, Middlesbrough, and Sunderland are reportedly interested in the center back, who has shown promise while on loan at Hibernian in Scotland.

Given the intense interest in the Manchester United defender, Kieran McKenna may need to strengthen his center-back position this summer. However, it could be prudent to consider other options as well.

That being stated, here are three more center backs that Ipswich Town ought to be watching.

Edwards, Ronnie – Peterborough United

Although Edwards is presently a League One player, he has the ability to play for Ipswich Town in the Championship. The standout player from Peterborough United could certainly fit into a Premier League backline even if the team were to earn promotion.

With the Posh, the England youth international stands out as a player, and a promotion up the ranks is undoubtedly on the horizon. The only problem is that, considering how great his potential is, he might be beyond Town’s grasp.

Di’Shon Bernard – Sheffield Wednesday

Di’Shon Bernard, who joined Sheffield Wednesday on a free transfer last summer, has demonstrated his abilities in the Championship; he might be a more practical choice. However, he only committed to a one-year contract when he arrived, so he might be available for a low price.

Young center back Bernard still has his finest years ahead of him. Given that he was formerly a teenage player for Manchester United, McKenna is probably aware of his abilities.

Burnley’s Luke McNally (on loan to Stoke City)

Not to be overlooked is McNally, who has struggled to replicate his Coventry City performance with Stoke City. In a club that is truly struggling, the latter sit near the bottom of the Championship table, with few players making an impression.

Since joining Burnley from Oxford United, McNally hasn’t made a significant impact on the club, so a transfer might provide some cash since the Clarets are expected to be demoted. If that’s the case, Ipswich Town ought to be among those who are eager.
