Smith may return to Town
Published: 05 Feb 2010 - 14:15:13
Ipswich manager Roy Keane has hinted he may recall teenage defender Tommy Smith early from his loan spell with League One side Brentford.The 19-year-old recently extended his stay with the Bees, but Keane has a 24-hour recall clause in place and may choose to bring the centre-half back to Portman Road before the end of his three-month loan.Keane told the club`s official website: "Tommy is playing games week in, week out and that is what going out on loan is all about."Sometimes a manager can be selfish and hold on to all his players but I like my players playing football."We`re happy for him to stay at Brentford but it wouldn't surprise me if he was back here soon, maybe over the next few weeks. We`ll see what happens."
