| It looks as though Mortitz Volz's time in the Premiership is coming to a close. According to the BBC, Fulham have accepted a bid from Championship side Ipswich Town for the German full-back. Our favorite former Germany Under-21 international appears to be on his way into the second tier after five years, 127 appearances and two goals with the Cottagers. The writing was on the wall for Volzy after he played only 12 games for Fulham last season and was not in the squad for the opening-day defeat at Hull. Ipswich manager Jim Magilton told his club's website: "We have made an offer to Fulham for Moritz Volz and it has been accepted." As someone who was born and bred in the rival Norfolk city of Norwich, I should be a little disgusted that Volzy is going to be a Tractor Boy. But considering I support Liverpool and Norwich are rubbish, I actually don't really care too much. It's a shame that Volzy won't be a top flight player anymore but at least the country air in Suffolk may make his bike ride to work more pleasant. He'll also be a lot closer to the sea if he wants to don his Baywatch outfit and strut the eastern shores in search of busty blondes to save. Unfortunately, there's more chance that he'll be saving small children from stalking sewage if he goes to some beaches in the region. Anyway - good luck Volzy. We'll keep an eye on your Championship exploits. |
