Dara O'Shea pens contract extension at Ipswich
Republic of Ireland defender Dara O'Shea has signed a new long-term contract with Ipswich Town, which will see him stay at the club until the summer of 2030. The 26-year-old moved to Portman Road from Burnley in August and he has gone on to be a key member of the squad, making 37 appearances across all competitions last season. He played more minutes than any other Ipswich player during the 2024/25 season. O'Shea's performances saw him win the club's Player of the Year Award and he said he is delighted to extend his stay in Suffolk. "I'm really happy and very proud to have signed a new contract at Ipswich Town. 'We learned a lot last season and that will be really important for us going forward. I'm glad to have signed this new contract and I am ready to get to work again in pre-season. 'There are good characters and good human beings at this club and I want to help deliver success again and help the club get back into the Premier League. This is a massive club but it can continue to grow and I'm excited." Ipswich manager Kieran McKenna is delighted O'Shea has committed to the club. 'He has been an important figure for us since his arrival last summer, putting in consistently good performances on the pitch while also bringing character and leadership to the group off it. 'He has real experience, despite still being relatively young for a central defender, and we believe he has the ability to further improve in the years to come. 'We're excited to now be working with him for an extended period as we continue to prepare for the season ahead.'
