Academy youngster Shakil Nicolaou has signed his first professional deal.

The 17-year-old winger joined the club last summer following a trial having previously been with Tottenham.

“Delighted to sign my first professional contract with Ipswich Town,” he wrote on Instagram.

Nicolaou was a regular with the U18s during 2024/25 and also featured for the U21s towards the end of the campaign.

While at Tottenham, Nicolaou won one cap at U15 level as a schoolboy and also qualifies to play international football for Cyprus.

Dissboyitfc added 13:24 - Jun 20 Beaties ???? Do I really need to explain. Both wingers and Philogene cost 20mil, so far a massive waste of money, doesn’t look interested and or bothered when he gets on the pitch! Nico looks a fantastic prospect. Can’t believe I needed to explain that to you
