Walters has scored seven goals for Ipswich this season

Ipswich Town midfielder Jon Walters is out for the rest of the season after rupturing ankle ligaments in Tuesday's 0-0 draw at Wolves.

The 25-year-old, who was named Ipswich's player of the year in 2008, is now waiting to hear whether he needs to have surgery on the injury.

Physio Matt Byard told the club's website: "The plan now is to take specialist advice.

"I can see his rehab continuing into the summer."

The Republic of Ireland B international joined Ipswich from Chester City in January 2007.
