Ipswich Town boss Paul Cook says the club’s summer recruitment drive is ‘close to the end’.

It’s been a busy window at Portman Road, with more than 20 first-teamers departing at the end of last season and 16 new signings arriving as Cook and CEO Mark Ashton rebuild the squad.

The latest new arrivals, Cameron Burgess and Tom Carroll, both made their debuts at Cheltenham last night and, with at least two players available in every position, Cook says his squad is close to complete.

He didn’t completely rule out further additions, though.

"It’s probably close to the end now," Cook said.

"You can never say never in football but the reality is, we’re delighted with the squad we’ve got now and if that’s what we go with, then I’m sure we’ll all be happy.

"Now, let’s get down to work and concentrate on winning games.

"We have great support and we want to make our supporters happy. We’re desperate to win games for them."

Next up for Town is back-to-back home games with MK Dons and AFC Wimbledon, with the Blues looking to improve on a start which has yielded just a single point from three League One matches.
