Loan starlet: Colback is heading back to Ipswich[LNB]Ipswich are poised to sign Sunderland midfielder Jack Colback on loan for a second time. [LNB]Tractor Boys boss Roy Keane will complete a deal next week for the 20-year-old to return to Portman Road. [LNB]Colback was a big success under Keane last season when he made a total of 41 appearances in all competitions, scoring five goals. [LNB]He won the Town players' player of the year award and came third in the supporters' poll before returning to the Stadium of Light in time to make his Premier League debut. [LNB]That was on the final day of last season but the occasion was marred when he was sent off for two bookable offences in the Black Cats' 2-1 defeat at Wolves. [LNB]Colback was expected to figure more regularly this season but his only appearance so far came in last month's Carling Cup home win over Colchester. [LNB]The youngster's availability is a bonus for Keane, who made no secret of his desire to take Colback under his wing again. [LNB]Speaking at the end of last season, Keane said: 'It's a big ask because Jack's got a good chance of getting involved with the Sunderland squad next season. [LNB]'But if it doesn't quite happen for him there we would take him back with open arms.'[LNB] Roy Keane suffers heartache as beloved dog Triggs passes awaySign up to our FREE Fantasy Football game - with £40,000 in prize money up for grabsKeane admits Ipswich may have to cash in on £10m-rated hitman WickhamSUNDERLAND FC
