The 19 year old has penned a three year contract keeping him at Portman Road until 2025.

“It’s been a great few days for me and I am delighted to have committed my future to the Club.

"I want to thank the gaffer as he has really helped me improve as a player since coming in. I would also like to thank the people around me, and close to me, who always give me support.

“My aim for next season is to play as much football as possible, whether that’s here or if the right loan opportunity comes up.”
