LIAM Feeney is in talks with Ipswich Town over a loan move until the end of the season.
The winger – who has been one of Wanderers’ most consistent players of recent months – could be heading to Portman Road by the end of the week.
Feeney is one of the squad’s higher earners and is out of contract in the summer.
He has scored five goals in 41 appearances for the Whites and created more chances than any other player.
It is understood the news of his possible departure was broken to Neil Lennon in a meeting today shortly before the decision to part company with the manager.
Wanderers are also prepared to allow Jay Spearing to join another club on loan with a view to a permanent move in the summer.
A payment of £100,000 is due to Liverpool if the midfielder plays another league game and a request has been made to the Premier League club to defer the debt until the summer, which would allow him to compete for the Whites until the end of the season.
But with relegation all-but confirmed, the decision has been taken to start offloading some of the bigger earners with a view to rebuilding under a tighter financial structure in League One next term.
Jimmy Phillips has been drafted in to take charge of the team and is expected to blood a number of the club’s younger players over the last nine games.
