The player was eager to return to Ipswich and his move has proven successful. With six goals and six assists in 22 appearances, the 24-year-old striker has made an impact for the team after leaving Leicester City for £1m this summer. Enzo Maresca, his former manager at Leicester, understood George Hirst’s desire to leave and is happy to see him thriving at Ipswich. However, Maresca hopes Hirst’s scoring prowess will take a break on Boxing Day when the two teams face off. Hirst’s journey from Sheffield Wednesday to Leicester City and now to Ipswich has seen its share of ups and downs, but his determination and talent are clear as he continues to make his mark in the Championship.
