Ipswich Town boss Paul Jewell admits a return for Blackburn Rovers midfielder Keith Andrews is unlikely.
Andrews is expected to move to another Premier League club this month.
"I spoke to Keith's agent on Friday. He's got a lot of interest from Premier League sides and the problem is that because it's so early in the window they probably don't want to dive in to the first thing on offer.
"You've seen it before, in the last few days of the window some stuff comes out of left field. We'd like to bring Keith Andrews here, we really would. Keith did really well and he knows that we like him," said Jewell.
