Ipswich Town has completed the loan signing of Paraguay international Julio Enciso from Brighton & Hove Albion.

The attacking midfielder, who has made 12 Premier League appearances so far this season, has joined until the end of the 2024/25 campaign.

Julio signed for the Seagulls from Paraguayan side Club Libertad in June 2022. Since arriving on the South Coast, he has scored four goals in 24 appearances.

He has also earned 23 caps for his country, netting twice.

“I am so happy to be here,” Julio told TownTV.

“The conversations with the Manager have been good. I am very grateful to him and the Club for believing in me. I can’t wait to get going.

“I’m a real fighter and I will do my best in every game.”

Julio, who will link up with his new teammates at Playford Road in the coming days, could be involved in Town’s Premier League fixture away at Liverpool on Saturday, 25 January.
