Ipswich Town: Crystal Palace and Burnley reportedly eye Jens Cajuste

Former Ipswich Town loanee Jens Cajuste is attracting interest from top clubs across Europe

Premier League duo Crystal Palace and Burnley are reportedly eyeing a move for former Ipswich Town loanee Jens Cajuste.

The midfielder joined the Blues on loan from Napoli last summer, playing 30 games in the Premier League.

As one of their top performers in 2024/25, Mark Ashton revealed that Town are interested in bringing him back in the Championship, but stressed that a deal needed to be right for all parties, which manager Kieran McKenna admitted would be difficult.

Now, according to Sky Sports, both Crystal Palace and Burnley are interested in signing Cajuste this summer.

Despite current uncertainty, the Eagles are hoping to compete in the Europa League after winning last season’s FA Cup, while the Clarets have just secured promotion back into the Premier League, signing Axel Tuanzebe on a free transfer last week

The report adds that Turkish giants Besiktas and La Liga outfit Sevilla among those also monitoring him, while Ipswich are still keen on bringing him back to Suffolk despite their relegation.

Napoli are clearly keen to move the 25-year-old on this summer, with previous reports suggesting that he had been offered to Udinese in a swap deal for striker Lorenzo Lucca.
