Nydam Returns to Action as U23s Host QPR - Ipswich Town News

Midfielder Tristan Nydam makes his very long-awaited return to action when the U23s take on QPR at Playford Road this afternoon (KO 1pm).

Nydam suffered a broken ankle and ligament damage in the pre-season friendly at Notts County in July 2019 and hasn’t featured since. The 21-year-old has been back training on the grass since October but today is his first match action.

The U23s, who are coached by Kieron Dyer and Terry Butcher, are currently second in Professional Development League Two South, six points behind Bristol City having played a game more, with QPR second bottom.
