We are delighted to announce that Wes Burns has signed a new one-year deal with the club. ✍️

The club is delighted to confirm that Wes Burns has signed a new contract with the club. 

The Welshman has made 164 appearances for the Blues since joining from Fleetwood Town in the summer of 2021, scoring 30 goals and playing a central role in securing three promotions during his time at Portman Road. 

He has now signed a new one-year deal, which will see him once again represent the club in the Premier League, and will link up with Gary O’Neil’s squad when pre-season training begins next week. 

“I’m absolutely delighted to have extended my stay at the club,” Wes said. 

“I am so proud to have represented Ipswich Town for the last five years and to have achieved so much during that time. I love everything about the club and the area so to be able to stay and play in the Premier League again is something I am really looking forward to.

Winning a third promotion last season was really special for the club and the town and also for me personally, after working so hard to get back on the pitch after a long time out through injury. After missing so much of our last season in the Premier League, I’m really motivated to compete at the highest level again and help the club take the next step. 

“After speaking to Gary (O’Neil), I’m excited to get back to work and prepare for the new season alongside my teammates.” 

Town Manager, Gary O’Neil, said: “Everyone at the club is delighted Wes will be with us next season. 

“I know just how important Wes has been to the club over the last five years and, after speaking to him, it’s clear he takes great pride in representing Ipswich Town and our supporters and knows exactly what is required to play for this great club. 

“He has real experience and quality and I’m looking forward to working with him as we prepare for the challenge of the Premier League.” 

The Town squad return for pre-season training on Monday, 6 July.
