Carlton Palmer has made his decision regarding the possibility of Kieffer Moore joining Ipswich on a long-term contract in the summer.
- If Ipswich want to keep top player Kieffer Moore, they must secure promotion to the Premier League.
- Moore has been a standout performer, scoring goals and setting up assists in the Championship.
- Ipswich’s chances of keeping Moore depend on achieving promotion, as other Premier League clubs may be interested.
Kieffer Moore will only be available to Ipswich Town if they are promoted to the Premier League, according to EFL Pundit and former England international Carlton Palmer.
Moore left Bournemouth in January and returned to Ipswich on a season-long loan. In his 11 games as a Tractor Boy in 2017, he was unsuccessful in scoring.
Moore has averaged 0.71 goals per 90 minutes thus far in ten Championship games, with six goals and one assist.
Ipswich was in dire need of a striker to head the line as they pursued consecutive promotions. Due to a serious hamstring injury that their star forward, George Hirst, sustained in December, they were forced to look into transfers.
One point separating Ipswich from the top two teams in the Championship, Leeds United and Leicester City, is their current position. Leicester also has a match coming up.
Palmer warns Ipswich over permanent Kieffer Moore deal
Palmer revealed to FLW in an exclusive interview: “Kieffer Moore is playing fantastically well at Ipswich.” He’s scoring goals, setting up assists, and flying. He is clearly a Welsh international, a Premier League player, and someone who wants to perform well in order to play in the Euros, which is why he is performing so well.
“They’re currently engaged in a dog fight.” Ipswich, Leeds, and Leicester are the three teams vying for the two automatic spots; the winner advances to the playoffs. Kieffer Moore would not want to play in the Championship; he simply needed to get out and start playing, which is exactly what he is doing. Therefore, Ipswich would need to be in the Premier League in order to sign him. They would also need to be able to pay his type of salary in the Championship.
Leeds and Leicester are the top two teams in the division, as I have stated repeatedly. I still believe Ipswich will advance through the playoffs, and I will continue to adhere to that. So, they will have a good chance of signing Kieffer Moore permanently if they advance to the play-offs and, if they are promoted, I’m sure.
However, considering how well he has performed, it’s possible that other Premier League teams will notice Kieffer Moore and decide he’s a player they want to sign. When you release a player on loan, you want him to make the kind of impact he has made—you knew he would in the Championship. This is what you do.
“He’s done the job, so if Ipswich get promoted, you could see him signing for Ipswich on a permanent basis because the owners are very ambitious and have deep pockets.”
Kieffer Moore will have plenty of options in the summer
Moore has performed admirably for Ipswich thus far, as many had anticipated.
When Hirst got hurt, Kieran McKenna’s team was really in a pickle, but they were able to bring in Moore, who is more than capable of filling the void.
Moore has performed so well that they might consider hiring him on a long-term basis.
To fit his goals and enable them to afford him, they might need to be promoted to the Premier League.
Moore deserves to be in the top division because he has consistently shown himself to be capable of winning championships. Dominic Solanke needed to play before the Euros because he was finding his game time to be limited due to his success with the Cherries. He’ll be hoping to be called up to the Wales squad. Owing to his impressive performance, other Premier League teams might be interested in signing him, so Ipswich might believe that a promotion is necessary to acquire their star player.
