Ipswich Town have jumped into the race to sign Franculino Dju, as they look to upset and beat Liverpool to sign the 21-year-old.
Ipswich are now in the race to sign Dju
Targets like Dju are why promotion is so important for Ipswich this season. The Tractor Boys escaped with a point against Middlesbrough on Sunday and have the chance to go three points clear of second place with a win over Charlton Athletic on Wednesday evening. With four games left to play, they are ready to return to the Premier League.
With that potential return on the cards, those at Portman Road are already planning what could be a busy transfer window this summer.
Meanwhile, Ipswich are looking to capitalize on their potential Premier League spot by targeting Swansea City’s Zan Vipotnik.

The Tractor Boys want to bring in a new goalkeeper.
No one has scored more than 21 goals in the Championship this season and the top flight is expensive as a result. Whether Ipswich can secure further interest from the Premier League this summer remains to be seen.
It looks like signing a striker will be a priority in the coming months. With George Hirst having finished his career in the Championship, the Tractor Boys need Premier League quality.
Kieran McKenna’s side struggled to find goals from their strikers last time they played in the top flight. It ended up costing them their place. They must not make the same mistake again and that is why Dju is on their radar.
According to the Danish company Campo, as reported by Sport Witness, Ipswich have rushed in to sign Dju after completing their evaluation of the Mdtjylland striker.
22-goal Dju will change Ipswich
There is a reason why Newcastle United, Liverpool and Everton are also targeting Dju this summer.
The 21-year-old has been in excellent form all season and is capable of shining in the Premier League. That’s why the big clubs are interested and why Ipswich will be making one of the biggest statements of the summer in England.
Almost two years since talent scout Jacek Kulig described Dju as “amazing”, the forward has moved on. So much so that he has scored 22 goals in 33 games in all competitions this season.
Although the formula for survival in the Premier League has often been to embrace the experience of the top flight in England, Dju is among those who represent an exception to this rule.

The Tractor Boys are looking to bring in a new midfielder.
He will be an immediate improvement on Hirst and could do enough to keep Ipswich in the top flight in England if they secure promotion in the coming weeks.
