Folami and Viral Depart Town - Ipswich Town News

Striker Ben Folami and midfielder Allan Viral are both leaving the club with their contracts up in addition to Adam Przybek, Harry Wright, Kai Brown and Zak Brown, who TWTD revealed have not been offered new deals earlier today.

Australia U23 international Folami, 21, is currently on loan with the Melbourne Victory having made four senior starts and three sub appearances for the Blues after joining as a scholar at 16.

Frenchman Viral, who also joined the academy at 16, made his only two senior appearances in the Papa John’s Trophy this season, one start and one sub appearance.

The 19-year-old recently spent time on trial at French Ligue 2 side Valenciennes.

Confirming the departure of all six players, Town’s general manager of football operations Lee O’Neill told the club site: "We'd like to wish all the boys the very best of luck for the future.”
