Kieran McKenna has done a great job since his arrival in December 2021, taking them back to the second tier in his first full season.
In their first season back in the Championship, the Tractor Boys are looking to be the first team to achieve back-to-back promotions since Southampton a decade ago.
They currently sit in second place and are ten games away from potentially playing Premier League football next season.
However, many players have been victims of their success, including striker Gassan Ahadme.
Ahadme started out unconvincingly
He started his career with Ipswich’s bitter rivals Norwich City when he moved from Spain, spending time with Real Oviedo B on loan.
His first loan in England came at Portsmouth, where he spent the first half of the 21/22 campaign. He would only play five league games for Pompey, before he made a permanent move to Burton Albion on January 2022.
After scoring three goals in 14 league appearances in the second half of the campaign, it was not long before he made the move to current side Ipswich, joining in September 2022.
But his move to Ipswich has been far from productive.
In the first half of his first season, he made six league appearances, failing to score. A loan move back to Burton came despite leaving just four months prior, but he would score once in seven league games as the Brewers clinched survival.
This season, he has been back on loan again in League One, this time at Cambridge United. He has already played more times this season than he has in any other, playing 24 times across all competitions.
