Ipswich Town have extended goalkeeper Christian Walton's contract until 2029. This new agreement keeps the 30-year-old at Portman Road for an additional season.
Walton has been a vital part of the squad during one of the club's most successful periods in recent history.
He joined Ipswich on loan from Brighton in 2021, and by January 2022, the move became permanent.
Since then, Walton has made 138 appearances for the club.
During this time, Ipswich achieved promotion back to the Premier League, marking a significant milestone in Walton's career.
After signing the contract extension, the goalkeeper expressed his deep connection to the club and the town.
“I’m really pleased to sign a new contract with the club.”
Walton further added:
“As I’m sure all the fans know, this club and this region mean a great deal to me. I’m incredibly proud of everything we’ve achieved together over the last few years.”
The shot-stopper also reminisced about Ipswich's return to the Premier League:
“Winning promotion and then representing Ipswich Town in the Premier League is one of the highlights of my career so far. I’m delighted to extend my stay here for another season.”
