Ipswich Town youngster Edwin Agbaje has joined National League side Sutton United on loan until January.

The 20-year-old right-back has made two senior appearances for the Blues, while also spending time out on loan at Yeovil Town in 2022/23. He won Town’s Academy Player of the Year award during that campaign. 

Agbaje returned from an ankle injury last season to become a regular for the U21s and captained the side. 

 

 

He now joins Steve Morison's side, who play in the fifth tier after they were relegated from League Two last season.

His new head coach said: “We are thrilled to welcome Edwin Agbaje to Sutton United. As a former Under-18 Republic of Ireland international with a bright future, Edwin brings both talent and promise to our squad.

“It's clear that Ipswich sees the value in nurturing young talent through our club. Edwin is an exciting prospect, and we’re confident he will make a significant impact this season.”

The Irishman will link-up with Town U21s team-mate Finley Barbrook at Gander Green Lane, as the midfielder joined the U's on loan last month.

Agbaje won't make his debut until mid-September,  due to an injury sustained with Town while on a pre-season tour of Austria.
