Ipswich boss Mick McCarthy is thought to be planning a raid on former club Wolves in the transfer window.

Ipswich Town boss Mick McCarthy is reportedly planning to raid former club Wolverhampton Wanderers when the transfer window opens next week.

The former Ireland manager has earmarked Ronald Zubar as his primary target but will also pursue deals for striker Sylvan Ebanks-Blake and defender Richard Stearman, according to the Express & Star.

Zubar, whom McCarthy signed to Wolves from Marseille in July 2009, has already been made available for transfer by McCarthy's replacement Stale Solbakken.

Ebanks-Blake has found the net eight times for Wolves in the league this season but is out of contract in the summer, while Sports Mole-sponsored Stearman has found his appearances limited under the new manager.

Skipper Karl Henry and defender George Elokobi are also thought to be on McCarthy's wishlist but are unlikely to leave.

McCarthy will make his return to Molineux on Saturday when Wolves welcome the Tractor Boys to the Midlands.
