West Ham United's second-choice goalkeeper Stephen Henderson has joined Championship outfit Ipswich Town on loan.
The 24-year-old joined the Hammers from Portsmouth at the beginning of the season, but has found his first-team opportunities limited at the Premier League club.
Scott Loach has held the jersey at Portman Road thus far this season, but according to Sky Sports News, Town boss Paul Jewell wants competition for places.
Henderson has made just two appearances this season.
