Ipswich Town have confirmed that Wes Burns has committed his long-term future to the club. 

A statement from the club has confirmed that Burns has put pen-to-paper on a deal until the summer of 2025.

The 27-year-old has had a superb season for Ipswich, despite the underwhelming nature of their League One campaign.

Burns has scored 12 goals and registered a further six assists in 37 League One appearances.

So, tying him down long-term is a popular move, particularly with Conor Chaplin, who was fairly excited over on Twitter:

Burns initially signed a three-year deal with Ipswich, but such has been his form this season, the Tractor Boys have opted to extend that.

A new three-year agreement ties him down until the summer of 2025.
