Ipswich Town sign Ben Pringle on loan from Fulham

Championship playoff contenders Ipswich Town have signed midfielder Ben Pringle on loan from Fulham.

The 26-year-old moves to Suffolk on an initial month-long agreement and could make his debut at Bristol City tomorrow.

Pringle only joined Fulham from Rotherham last summer, but has managed just 12 Championship starts for the Cottagers.

Ipswich have the option to extend the left-footer's stay until the end of the season should they wish to do so in a month's time.

His arrival comes after Ipswich announced yesterday that Ryan Fraser, Cole Skuse and Giles Coke would all be out for at least the next month, with Bournemouth loanee Fraser potentially missing for as long as two months.
