Ipswich Town have been busy in the transfer market this summer, making significant moves to strengthen their squad ahead of the new Premier League season. The Tractor Boys have made several key signings, including Omari Hutchinson from Chelsea for €23.5m, Jacob Greaves from Hull City for €21.5m, and Liam Delap from Manchester City for €17.85m. The club has also brought in Arijanet Muric from Burnley for €9.55m, Conor Townsend from West Brom for €590,000, and Ben Johnson from West Ham on a free transfer.
Manager Kieran McKenna is gearing up for Ipswich Town’s first game of the season against Liverpool, but the club is still working behind the scenes to secure additional signings. Reports suggest that Ipswich is interested in Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Oliver Skipp, with competition from Leicester City and Southampton. The club has also been in talks with Napoli midfielder Jean Cajuste and is reportedly close to finalizing a deal with a foreign club.
One major development is Ipswich Town’s agreement to sign Fenerbahce winger Ryan Kent for £2.5m. Kent, who previously played for Liverpool and Rangers, has been given permission to speak with Ipswich following Fenerbahce’s acceptance of the offer. Kent’s move to Ipswich would mark a return to English football after a year in Turkey, where he made limited appearances.
Former Tottenham midfielder Jamie O’Hara and ex-Rangers boss Steven Gerrard have both praised Kent’s abilities, with O’Hara expressing interest in having him at Spurs and Gerrard commending his skills and work ethic. Kent’s potential arrival at Portman Road adds excitement to Ipswich Town’s upcoming season and could provide a significant boost to the team’s attack.
As Ipswich continues to finalize their squad for the upcoming campaign, the signing of Ryan Kent represents a significant step in their recruitment strategy. Fans will be eagerly awaiting Kent’s potential debut and the impact he could have on the team’s performance in the Premier League. Stay tuned for more updates on Ipswich Town’s transfer activities as the season approaches.
