Napoli midfielder Jens Cajuste is on the verge of joining Ipswich Town in the Premier League. After a potential move to Brentford fell through, the Swedish player is now set to make his way to the newly-promoted side on a dry loan deal.
Gianluca Di Marzio reports that Ipswich Town, fresh from their promotion to the English top flight, are eager to bolster their squad for the challenges ahead. The club is reportedly close to finalizing an agreement with Napoli for Cajuste’s services, which would see him join on a straight loan without an option to buy.
This move comes after Cajuste’s limited playing time at Napoli, where he made 26 appearances and provided 2 assists since joining the Serie A champions last summer. The 24-year-old midfielder, who signed a five-year contract with Napoli for a reported €12 million fee, is now looking for more regular first-team opportunities.
The potential loan to Ipswich Town represents a chance for Cajuste to showcase his talents in one of the world’s most competitive leagues. It also aligns with Ipswich’s ambitions to establish themselves in the Premier League following their promotion.
As negotiations progress, both clubs are working to iron out the final details of the transfer. If completed, this move could prove beneficial for all parties involved – providing Cajuste with valuable playing time, strengthening Ipswich’s midfield options, and allowing Napoli to give their player important development opportunities abroad.
