Ipswich sign goalkeeper Palmer from West Brom

Ipswich Town have signed West Bromwich Albion goalkeeper Alex Palmer.

The 28-year-old had a medical at Portman Road before the transfer deadline and will leave The Hawthorns having come through the club's academy.

The total amount Ipswich are paying is reportedly up to £5m.

Palmer has made 104 appearances for West Brom, who are sixth in the Championship, with them opting to sell him as they believe they have a strong succession plan in Josh Griffiths, Joe Wildsmith and England Under-19s keeper Ben Cisse.

Ipswich have no plans on moving other goalkeepers out, with Palmer coming in as Christian Walton is sidelined for a number of weeks with a groin injury.
