Liam Delap is set to return to Ipswich if they achieve promotion back to the Premier League after a disappointing season at Chelsea. Delap joined Chelsea from Ipswich for £30 million but struggled to find his form.
During his time at Ipswich, Delap scored 12 goals and provided 2 assists in his full debut Premier League season. This season, he has managed just 2 goals and 4 assists in all competitions for Chelsea.
Delap has started 11 times for Chelsea in the Premier League this season. Despite this, he has not made the impact expected of him.
Currently, Ipswich is in the automatic promotion places in the Championship. However, they could drop into the playoffs if they fail to secure automatic promotion.
Reports indicate that Everton has revived their interest in Liam Delap. Additionally, Leeds and other clubs are also monitoring his situation.
Chelsea is reportedly looking for a similar amount to the £30 million they paid for Delap if they sell him back to Ipswich.
Delap is only 23 years old and still has time to develop further. His potential remains high, as evidenced by his earlier success at Ipswich.
The next few months will be crucial for both Delap and Ipswich as they aim for a return to the top flight of English football.
