Ipswich Town’s January signings so far
The Tractor Boys suffered the heaviest defeat of the season Premier League last time out in the campaign, losing 6-0 against Manchester City at Portman Road.
McKenna admitted it was “painful” for his sidewho are now back in relegation zone along with other advanced teams Leicester City and Southampton.
“A painful game for us. They were beaten by a world class team and they were too good for us. Positive in the early parts of the game, but after the first goal they hit top form and top confidence – we couldn’t find an answer.
“They were outstanding and when that’s the case, the gap between us was too big on the day. After they scored the first goal, they played really well, our confidence went down and they gave us a lot of promise individually.
“The players showed good character in the last 25 minutes. In a difficult moment in the last 20 minutes they regrouped well. We had to take medicine and work hard to stop Man City.”

However, Ipswich have made new winter windows to give McKenna’s side every chance of securing a second season in the top flight, with Ben Godfrey joining on loan from Atalanta and Jaden Philogene signing permanently from Aston Villa.
Conversation after signing, Philogene told Ipswich’s official website: “I’m excited to be here and I know there are great players on the team. I just want to play as much as possible. As a player I like to dribble and connect the game and score goals and assists. I’m looking forward to it.”
There were reports that McKenna and Ipswich could make up to five signings this month, everything should go according to plan, and it seems that the third coming has now been arranged.
Ipswich Town have agreed a contract with Julio Enciso
Ipswich have been linked with a move for Brighton & Hove Albion attacking midfielder Julio Encis in recent days, and the shift has accelerated in the last 24 hours.
Heading to the X on Tuesday night, transfer expert Romano revealed that Enciso is a ‘done deal’ at Ipswich on loan until the end of the season, although the transfer does not include a buyout option.
The 20-year-old can play as an attacking midfielder, second striker or left winger, and is valued at a career-high €22 million. Transfermarkt.
Paraguayan national team player, called “special” in the media, he made 57 senior appearances for Brighton, scoring five goals and assisting six in all competitions.
He should provide a versatile attacking option until the end of the season, and if Enciso can repeat goals like the one he scored against Manchester City, Ipswich would make a shrewd loan signing.
