Young Ipswich Town academy strikers sign on loan

Bury Town made a late addition to their squad on Saturday morning with the loan signing of striker Tommy Hughes from the Ipswich Town FC Academy.

The 18 year old striker was thrown straight into the starting line up after the paperwork was cleared on Saturday morning, and played the full 90 minutes in the 1-2 defeat to Aveley at the Denny Bros Stadium.

Ben Chenery said: "I would like to thank Ipswich for once again allowing us to take one of their young players on loan. Last season we had Jack Lankester and Brett McGavin with us and I think Ipswich saw the benefit that it gave to both players in playing competitive Isthmian League football, with Jack now making first team appearances in the Championship this season"

"Tommy came into the side on Saturday and showed plenty of energy and did well up front for us in his first game, and hopefully it will benefit both him, us and also Ipswich"

"I would like to thank Alan Lee, and the staff at the Ipswich academy for their help once again and I hope we can continue a good partnership with them"
