Ipswich line up new goalkeeper transfer plan that could affect Alex Palmer and West Brom

West Bromwich Albion will be keeping tabs on the Ipswich Town latest if they want to sign Alex Palmer.

The Baggies could be in the market for a new goalkeeper this summer.

Max O'Leary has put pen to paper on a new deal while Matt Ingram has come in from Oxford United.

There are still questions remaining in between the sticks as Josh Griffiths made his move to Stoke City earlier in the summer.

That has seen the former Baggies man be linked after a far from ideal spell at Portman Road.

West Brom may want Palmer back, but could be impacted by the latest goings-on at Ipswich.

Ipswich Town ready loan exit for keeper

With the Tractor Boys now in the Premier League, there are always going to be changes to their squad.

That has already been impacted by the introduction of Gary O'Neil as their new boss, replacing Kieran McKenna.

Ipswich have already brought in four fresh faces, with Celtic's Daizen Maeda being the latest.

Their first move of the summer saw 22-year-old keeper Kayne van Oevelen join from Volendam.

It doesn't look as if he'll be challenging for the number one jersey this summer as a temporary exit already looks to be on the cards.

Alan Nixon reported via Patreon on Sunday that the Tractor Boys are ready to loan out the Dutchman.

A year in the Championship has been earmarked with various sides interested in bringing him in.

That may prove to be damaging for the Baggies should they push to sign Palmer this summer.

West Brom move for Palmer could now hinge on one thing

It could prove to be bad news for James Morrison and Co. should van Oevelen make a move.

That may not truly be the case if Ipswich are to bring in another shot-stopper before the window ends.

Should O'Neil's side bring in a keeper to compete with Christian Walton, it could open the door for Palmer to leave.

That could give Albion a perfect chance to swoop in and bring the 29-year-old back to The Hawthorns.

There is a lot of work to be done between now and the end of the window, but it looks likely to be an interesting final few weeks.
