Magilton hopes Campo takes his bags of experience to Ipswich

13 April 2012

Ipswich Town manager Jim Magilton is hoping to persuade former Spain international Ivan Campo to join the east Anglian club when the pair meet for talks today.


The 34-year-old, who won the Champions League with Real Madrid before joining , watched the friendly defeat to West Ham last night from the directors' box.

Magilton confirmed he will be showing Campo around Portman Road with a view to securing the experienced and versatile Basque.

'He has played at the highest level for many years and is someone I feel could do a good job for us, Magilton told the club's website.

'He's got bags of experience and could come into the club and really help our younger players but we haven't got that far down the line yet.

'We will sit down and have a chat and if there is something we can sort out, then great. If not, we move on.'
