Danish Midfielder Joins Academy - Ipswich Town News
Danish midfielder Victor Guldbrandsen has joined Town’s academy ranks as a second-year scholar.
Guldbrandsen, who has signed a two-year pro deal, was previously with Lyngby in his home country and spent time on trial with the Blues and French side St Etienne last season.
The 17-year-old central midfield player, who featured in the recent U18s friendly victory over Norwich and scored in their pre-season game against Colchester, has been capped once by Denmark at U16 level.
Meanwhile, next week's U18s game with Crystal Palace has switched to Playford Road from the Eagles' training ground (KO 11am).
