“Got It All” – Ipswich Town Youngster Tipped To Force Way Into Kieran Mckenna’s Plans

Ipswich Town’s academy

Of course, the priority for all clubs is results for the here and now, but, like the rest, the Tractor Boys will want players to come through the academy to make a mark on the first-team.

But, the better they get, the harder it becomes for those younger lads to reach the level required.

Elkan Baggott tipped to make Ipswich Town impact

Nevertheless, there are some exciting talents coming through the ranks, and Ipswich fan pundit Henry believes that Elkan Baggott is someone who has the talent to force his way into McKenna’s plans.

“I would say Elkan Baggott. He’s a left-footed centre-back, 6ft 5, excellent on the ball.

“He’s currently on loan in League One with Bristol Rovers, getting that first-team experience, so I really think he would be able to fit in quite easily and quite comfortably into the Ipswich side over the next 2-3 years.

“His ability on the ball and his height really lends itself to the modern style of football. Defensively he’s strong, he’s got a turn of pace. It seems like he’s got it all, he just needs some more experience at the moment.

“I think his ceiling is the Championship minimum and who knows where he can go from that.”
