It’s now a deal that has been made permanent. The 27-year-old made 40 appearances for Ipswich over the last two seasons as the Portman Road club won back-to-back promotions to the Premier League. TWTD claim “following further talks a £600,000 plus add-ons fee was settled.”
Ipswich boss Kieran McKenna said: “He’s been an important figure around the club in the last couple of seasons. He played his part in both promotions and was a well-liked character in the dressing room and around the community. He goes certainly with our best wishes to a good club and we hope it goes well for him and he’ll always be welcome.”
Middlesbrough’s statement reads: “Centre-back George Edmundson has joined the club on a permanent basis. The 27-year-old was on a season-long loan from Ipswich Town before being recalled earlier this week. But a deal has been agreed between the two clubs for George to join Boro on a permanent basis, and he joins on a two-and-a-half year contract.
