Ipswich are eyeing Luton winger Chiedozie Ogbene before Friday's transfer deadline.

The Tractor Boys are looking for another forward despite spending almost 拢100m this summer.

It comes after winger Wes Burns suffered a hamstring injury in the 2-0 opening day defeat to Liverpool.

Ogbene joined Luton from Rotherham on a free transfer last summer and impressed in the Premier League, despite the Hatters' relegation.

He scored five goals in 39 games in all competitions and was the second fastest top-flight player last season, after Tottenham's Micky van de Ven, having clocked 36.93kph against Fulham last September.

Should he move, Ogbene could be Ipswich's final piece of business this window with Kieran McKenna's side having already signed last season's Championship top scorer Sammie Szmodics from Blackburn for an initial 拢9m as well as completing a move for Sunderland winger Jack Clarke.

They also beat Wolves to defender Dara O'Shea from Burnley on Sunday and have brought in Ben Johnson, Liam Delap, Jacob Greaves, Omari Hutchinson, Arijanet Muric and Connor Townsend since winning promotion from the Championship.
