Ipswich Town have been very active in the transfer market this season. And I think they don't want to fall into the relegation zone again.
No club want to drop to a lower league tier again after ranking up and Ipswich Town are doing everything they can in preparation for a new season with aim to stay in Premier League at the end of season.
They strengthen their squad to stay in the Premier League. Ipswich Town's performance in the Championship was quite good. And now they continue to try to strengthen their squad.
Ipswich Town have already spent 72.99 million on signing new players. This club is not a rich club. Still they are trying their best to strengthen the squad.
They are doing a lot, spending a lot of money and all of these activities recently are to help them staying in Premier League. They are aware that Premier League is more difficult than Championship and know that if they are not well prepared, they will be demoted to Championship again.
- Ipswich spent £23.5m to sign Chelsea youngster Omari Hutchinson to the squad.
- Ipswich have added Liam Delap to the squad for £17.85m to bolster their attack.
- But the interesting fact is that Ipswich spent 21.5 million to add defender Jacob Greaves to the squad. Usually teams like Ipswich don't spend that much money to strengthen the defence.
Most of the players in Ipswich's squad are young. Ipswich is trying to build a squad based on youth. The fitness of the players is good enough and also the players are confident. So I guess Ipswich Town will stay out of the relegation zone next season.
Does Ipswich over spend money for these young players?
Their quality will need to be verified in a new season and even they are good season, Ipswich Town will have challenge to combine them into their squad. It's not easy task to help many new players to adapt to a new club, new teammates, new coach and tactics. Ipswich Town shows their efforts to prepare well for a new season but they have to solve many things in a coming season, to perform well and win against other clubs to stay in Premier League.
