The 17 year old striker joined Town on a 6 month deal just before Christmas, and has now been offered a further twelve months at the club by the academy, an offer which he is happy to accept.

"That was my aim when I came here and I'm thrilled to be staying." he told the Official Club Website.

"I love it at Ipswich. Everyone has made me welcome from day one and helped me settle in and now I've got some great friends as well as a chance to make a career in the game.

"Being a professional footballer is what I want to do and Ipswich have given me the platform to go out and do that. It's up to me now to take that opportunity."
