British media: Taking advantage of the remaining energy, 40-year-old Ashley Young will join Ipswich as a free agent

July 22 According to British media TalkSPORT, 40-year-old veteran Ashley Young is about to join Ipswich as a free agent. In the 2024-25 season, Ipswich was unfortunately relegated from the Premier League, and Ashley Young hopes to help the team return to the top league in England.

Previously, Ashley Young had discussed the return with his old club Watford, but the deal was not completed due to his excessive salary requirements, although the Hornets hoped that he would become the captain of the team in the new season. Ashley Young made his first appearance for Watford in the Championship in 2003 and made 110 appearances for the club before moving to Villa for £8 million in 2007. This will be Yang's first time in nearly 20 years to compete in the English Championship.

After advancing to the Premier League with Watford in 2006, Ashley Young made 485 appearances in England's top league, including during Manchester United and Everton. During his time at Old Trafford, he won six trophies, including the Premier League title. In addition, he won the Serie A championship with Inter Milan in 2021.
