Czech Republic midfielder Rudi Skacel is set to move to Ipswich for an estimated £1million.

Southampton star Skacel spent the second half of last season on loan at Hertha Berlin and his agent Pavel Zika claims he will complete the move to Portman Road before the end of the week.

Zika told Czech website deniksport.cz: "Ipswich seem to the most probable option, but nothing is signed so far.

"There are several other clubs interested, but Ipswich are the only one to have made a concrete offer."

The 28-year-old was called up to the Czech Republic side for Euro 2008, but failed to make an appearance for Karel Brukner's men.
