Ipswich Town becomes Highest-paid EFL player at £2 million per-year after Agreeing to…

The season of 2018-19 was a terrible one for Ipswich Town as they were relegated to League One after a 17-year stay in the Championship.

A tumultuous previous summer led to the Tractor Boys’ downfall, and the £2 million double signing of Jon Nolan and Toto Nsiala was one of the key deals that didn’t work out.

Having been signed by manager Paul Hurst, neither player met the heights they showcased at Shrewsbury Town and would both leave the club in 2022 following an underwhelming four years.

If you ask Shrewsbury fans their favourite season in recent memory, they would all likely say their League One campaign of 2017-18. Two men who were key in helping Salop reach the Play-Off and EFL Trophy final that season were Toto Nsiala and Jon Nolan.

One was a rock at the back, the other a silky midfielder who could score and create chances at will.

A player hampered by injuries, that season was the highlight of Nolan’s career. A stunning goal at The Valley and a crucial finish in blizzard-like conditions against Scunthorpe United are moments that will live forever with the player and fans alike.
