Ipswich Town have signed Japan forward Daizen Maeda from Celtic on a three-year contract. Maeda scored 79 goals in 212 appearances at Celtic, where he won five league titles, three Scottish Cups and two League cups. "My aim will always be to battle hard, score goals, and provide assists for my team - I will always run and give everything that I have." Ipswich have added Maeda to the arrivals of defender Issa Diop, winger Abdul Fatawu, striker Emersonn and goalkeeper Kayne van Oevelen. In a social media post, external to the "Celtic family", Maeda said "the last four and a half years at Celtic have been the most special chapter of my career and my life".
