Ipswich boss Paul Jewell hailed Massimo Luongo
Tottenham loanee Massimo Luongo will bring a touch of class to Ipswich, claims manager Paul Jewell.
The 19-year-old made his debut against Cambridge United and his performance impressed the Tractor Boys boss.
“He is a player I was aware of last year,” Jewell told the East Anglian Daily Times.
“I am good friends with Tim Sherwood, I spoke to him and Harry Redknapp. I have seen him play a few times and he has always impressed me.
“Considering the first time he trained with us was on Tuesday, he showed great confidence. It was only a pre-season friendly but you could see he has a touch of class.”
Spurs’ striker coach Les Ferdinand denies that Tottenham desperately need a new forward – arguing that the problem has been a lack of continuity, not quality.
