Upson Joins Yeovil - Ipswich Town News
Released midfielder Ed Upson has joined Yeovil Town on a two-year contract. The 20-year-old’s deal with the Blues was not renewed at the end of the season.
Upson, who had a spell on loan at Barnet late last season, made two senior appearances for Town, both as a sub in the Carling Cup.
The Bury-born midfielder will be best remembered at Portman Road for scoring the winning goal in the second leg of the 2005 FA Youth Cup final victory over Southampton, having come on as a sub while still a schoolboy.
Upson, who also had a spell on loan at Stevenage and won England U19 caps while with the Blues, will be reunited with former team-mate Dean Bowditch at Huish Park.
