Deano Wants To Stay

Ipswich Town striker Dean Bowditch insists he is not going to join Liverpool when the Transfer window re-opens in January.

Dean: “I really can't see me leaving here and if I do go it will be a few years yet. I like it here and enjoy it here. More than anything, I want to be here.

“I have been here a long time, since I was 10, and the way I look at it Ipswich have invested a lot of time and effort on me, and now I am paying them back.

“If I did leave - if Ipswich accepted an offer I wouldn't have a lot of choice but to go - I would probably be stuck in the reserves somewhere. I don't want that. I want to be playing and even if I'm not doing it week in, week out, here at Ipswich, I'm learning and improving all the time.

“I am just like every other player. I want to play at the highest level and if I do it with Ipswich, so much the better. That's what we are striving for at the moment and it's what I have been dreaming of for years.”.

This squashes rumours of reports that speaking on a local radio station Dean stated he would be joining Liverpool on the new year.
