Ipswich Town has officially signed forward Liam Delap from Manchester City on a deal that could reach up to £20 million ($25 million). The 21-year-old has committed to a five-year contract with the newly-promoted Premier League side as they gear up for their first top-flight season in over two decades.
Delap is the fourth signing for Ipswich this summer, highlighting the club's ambitions as they make their return to the Premier League. Expressing his enthusiasm for the move, Delap stated, "I'm really excited. The manager here likes to play exciting football. It's quick and intense, and I am looking forward to that."
Having made only six appearances for Manchester City, Delap spent the past two seasons on loan at Stoke City, Preston North End, and Hull City, seeking to gain more first-team experience. With this transfer, he aims to contribute significantly to Ipswich's campaign by providing goals and assists.
Ipswich manager Kieran McKenna expressed his delight at securing Delap, praising his exceptional physical and technical skills. "He is a player with outstanding attributes who has a hunger to come here and continue to learn and improve," McKenna said, emphasizing the potential he sees in Delap for further development at the club.
