It seems that Ipswich Town has undergone significant changes in their first team squad following their return to the Championship after a brief spell in the Premier League. While they faced relegation from the top flight, they managed to retain some key players like Leif Davis and Jack Clarke, while also bringing in new faces.
According to FLW’s Ipswich fan pundit Adam Wilkin, there is speculation that defender Ben Johnson could potentially seek an exit in the January transfer window. With the additions of Ashley Young and Darnell Furlong in the summer, Johnson might find himself behind in the pecking order. Given his reported high wages and limited playing time, a move could make sense, especially if there is interest from Premier League clubs.
Despite a challenging start to the Championship season, with Ipswich Town currently in 20th place after four games, Johnson’s future at the club remains uncertain. If he continues to struggle for game time, a transfer in January could be a viable option. Johnson’s experience in the Premier League could attract suitors, and if Ipswich receives a suitable offer, they might consider cashing in on him to strengthen the squad or free up wages for other acquisitions.
