Ipswich Town: Kieran McKenna delivers key Wes Burns update

The winger suffered a shoulder injury on international duty recently

That’s after Tractor Boys manager Kieran McKenna revealed the winger is not expected to need surgery on a shoulder injury picked up on international duty with Wales earlier this month.

What is Burns’ situation at Ipswich?

Burns has been a key player for Ipswich, ever since he made the move to Portman Road from Fleetwood Town back in the summer of 2021.

During his time with the club, the winger has scored 23 goals and provided 20 assists in 100 appearances in all competitions, helping them to promotion to the Championship last season.

That form has seen the 28-year-old break into the Welsh national team, although that came at a cost earlier this month, when he was out of his country’s 4-0 friendly win over Gibraltar.

Speaking previously about that setback, McKenna had revealed that Burns was due to see a specialist about the injury to determine whether there was a need for surgery on that blow.

Matt Holland,

With Burns having now seen that specialist about his shoulder injury, it seems a timescale for his return has been set, with the prognosis an encouraging one for Ipswich.

Providing an update on Burns – and striker Freddie Ladapo, who has been out recently with an Achilles problem – after his side’s 1-0 win away at Bristol City on Wednesday night, McKenna was quoted by The East Anglian Daily Times as saying: “Wes had a good report from the specialist. The specialist is hopeful that he won’t need surgery.

“If that’s the case, it’ll be a different sort of rehabilitation and we’ll have him back around the [November] international break, which would be a pretty good outcome from where we were.

“Freddie’s progressing well. He wasn’t ready for tonight, but we’ll see how he is in the next few days.”

Burns still has just over two years remaining on his current contract with Ipswich, securing his future with the Tractor Boys until the end of the 2024/25 season.
