Premier Move for Pablo?

The £12,000 per week Spaniard yesterday admitted that he would have to move away from Portman Road to further his career due to lack of chances, and Royle believes he is capable of peforming at a higher level.

Speaking to the Ipswich Evening Star, the former Everton, Manchester City and Oldham Athletic boss said: "If I was at a lower Premiership club, and looking for a third or fourth striker, I would consider Pablo.

"When he's at his best he's a handful. I appreciate his talents and it's nothing personal. It's about the team and the team is everything."
