Ipswich Town has secured the services of highly-rated defender Jacob Greaves from Hull City, bolstering their backline ahead of their Premier League return. The 23-year-old center-back has signed a five-year deal with the club, becoming their third summer signing.


Greaves' impressive performances for Hull City last season earned him the club's Player of the Year award and a spot in the Championship's Team of the Season. He has been a mainstay in Hull's defense, making 177 appearances across all competitions over the past four campaigns.


Ipswich Town manager Kieran McKenna expressed his excitement about the signing, praising Greaves' technical ability, athleticism, and character. McKenna believes Greaves is ready to make the step up to the Premier League and that Ipswich provides the ideal environment for him to grow.


Greaves himself is eager to start his new chapter at Ipswich, citing the club's exciting project and the manager's vision as key factors in his decision. He also praised the club's culture and believes he will fit in seamlessly.


Fans may get their first glimpse of Greaves in action on July 20 when Ipswich takes on Shakhtar Donetsk in a pre-season friendly. The club kicks off their Premier League campaign against Liverpool at Portman Road on August 17.


This signing highlights Ipswich's commitment to strengthening their squad ahead of their top-flight return. With Greaves' addition, the club aims to establish a solid defense and make a positive impact in the Premier League.
