Ipswich Town have handed a short-term deal to former Fulham goalkeeper Jaroslav Drobny, after the Czech impressed during a trial at Portman Road.

The 27-year-old who left the Cottagers last summer after failing to make a first-team appearance, joins Town as cover for the injured Lewis Price.

Drobny told the cub's official website: "I agreed to end my contract at Fulham and became a free agent in the summer.

"I have trained with the first-team this week and the manager has asked me to stay for a month which I am delighted to do.

"If I do well here then perhaps there may be a chance to stay longer, but we will have to wait and see what happens."
