Ipswich Town has begun their pre-season training in preparation for their return to the Premier League. The signing of defender Ben Johnson and midfielder Omari Hutchinson, who recently signed permanently from Chelsea in a club record deal, has been met with excitement by fans and experts alike.
Johnson’s addition is expected to provide much-needed support to the backline, while Hutchinson is highly regarded and could thrive in the top flight. Many elite clubs have taken notice of his form towards the end of last season, and he is expected to make a significant impact on the team’s performance.
BBC Radio Suffolk’s Connor Bennett spoke about the potential of both players in the Premier League, stating that they have the potential to elevate the squad’s performance or turn a significant profit for the club. He also highlighted the importance of protecting valuable assets as a Premier League club and improving the squad as a whole.
Bennett suggested that these signings will benefit other players in the team who are making a leap from League One to the Championship. He expects that these new additions will motivate and improve the team as they transition into top-flight football. The full discussion can be heard on BBC Sounds.
