Ipswich Town are said to be 'considering a move' to re-sign Liam Delap from Chelsea this summer.
The Independent report that the Blues and Premier League rivals Nottingham Forest are among 'a number of clubs' eyeing the 23-year-old, who has also attracted interest from Serie A side Como.
Delap's preference is to stay in the English top flight, however, although remaining at Stamford Bridge doesn't look like an option despite the recent arrival of new boss Xabi Alonso.

The former Manchester City man is currently training away from the rest of his Chelsea team-mates in a separate group, and he no longer holds the no.9 shirt, which has been handed to Joao Pedro.

Ipswich are searching for an experienced striker to bolster their forward ranks, having been linked with a move for Arsenal's Gabriel Jesus last night.
