Ipswich Town have been promoted to the Premier League, so will need to make smart transfers that utilise the influx of cash and help them survive.
The Tractor Boys are about to be more cash-rich than they’ve ever been in their history, with an influx of at least £80 million from local and international TV packages alone.
Despite the golden hour, Kieran McKenna will want to make smart transfers that don’t financially de-stabilise the club if they end up being relegated back to the Championship next campaign. The manager is rumoured to be leaving the club, but nevertheless, the squad will need upgrades to be able to compete in England’s top-flight.

At just 29 years old, former Aston Villa, Everton and PSV Eindhoven winger Anwar El-Ghazi still has a lot to give. Unfortunately, his career has been stunted by issues off-the-field, engaging in a conflict with his latest club, Mainz.
He hasn’t played a minute of professional football since, but has had heaps of experience and success in the Premier League.
He’s a strong passer of the ball and likes to shoot from distance, which would add another dimension to Town’s midfield.
31-year-old Koen Casteels has been a solid Bundesliga keeper for the whole of his club career, joining Wolfsburg from Werder Bremen for the 2015/16 season. He can be best described as a sweeper keeper who loves long passing, but has been set back with one of Wolfsburg’s poorer seasons in recent memory.
A new challenge in the Premier League is exactly what Casteels should be looking for and if Ipswich want that high-level consistency, he could be their man. He has been linked with Celtic in recent times to replace Joe Hart, but surely a chance to play under McKenna in the Premier League could tempt him.
