Wycombe Eyeing Vincent-Young - Ipswich Town News

TWTD understands League One Wycombe Wanderers are eyeing a move for released Blues full-back Kane Vincent-Young.

The 27-year-old left Town after almost four years in May having joined the club from Colchester for £500,000 in 2019.

We understand Wycombe are now interested in adding the free agent to their squad ahead of the start of the 2023/24 campaign.

Vincent-Young will be well known to Scott Mitchell, who left his role as Town’s head of academy recruitment to take up a similar role with the senior squad at Adams Park this summer.

The London-born defender made an excellent start to his Town career before suffering an injury in his ninth game.

That knock and further subsequent injuries as he made his return saw him sidelined for the next 17 months.

However, the versatile full-back was never able to hit the heights of his early spell and in 2022/23 made only two League One starts in addition to 16 appearances from the bench, as well as another four starts in cup competitions.

Overall, Vincent-Young made 42 starts and 22 sub appearances for the Blues, scoring twice, in consecutive matches during his early games after his move.

Wycombe have already signed one released Town player this summer, centre-half Richard Keogh.
