Ipswich have broken their transfer record by spending £18million to re-sign winger Omari Hutchinson from Chelsea, following his brilliant loan spell at Portman Road last term. And the transfer could reach £22m depending on add-ons, too.
Ipswich have followed up on that deal by landing Ben Johnson on a free transfer following the expiry of his West Ham contract. Johnson, who can operate as a full-back on either side of defence, has penned a four-year deal with the Suffolk-based club.
