How much does every Ipswich Town player earn annually and who receives the most into their account?

Ipswich Town made a famous return to the Premier League after 22 long years following their second-placed finish in the Championship at the end of the 2023-24 season.

Kieran McKenna has brought back hope at the Portman Road Stadium, with the Ipswich Town faithful bouncing with joy once again. That joy, however, could be short-lived as the Tractor Boys linger in the drop zone.

There's certainly no denying the fact that Ipswich do not possess the same financial muscle as other teams in England, given that they are the team with the lowest annual payroll in the Premier League. What they do possess, though, are players with immense potential. The likes of Liam Delap, Omari Hutchinson, and Leif Davis have been impactful this season inspite of the fact that they have barely any top-flight experience under their belt.

So, who is the highest earner at Portman Road this season? And who is on the opposite end of the spectrum?

GOAL delved into the numbers from Capology and found out!
