Ipswich Town announced the signing of the contract with Young on the club's official website on the 24th (Korea time).
"Ipswich Town are very pleased to announce the signing of Ashley Young on a one-year deal, and he is a veteran who has played most of his career in the Premier League, including Manchester United, Aston Villa and Everton," the club said.
Young has scored 88 goals in 750 appearances so far, and has won the Premier League, FA Cup and Europa League while playing for Manchester United. He currently plays as a side midfielder or full-back and has won the Serie A title for Inter Milan.
Young made his England debut against Austria in November 2007 and scored seven goals in 39 A matches.
Most recently, he played two seasons for Everton, and in 2024-2025 he made 32 Premier League appearances, mostly at right fullback. He is still evaluated as a player who can demonstrate his ability as a multi-resource and contribute to the team.

"We think his leadership and experience this season will be a great asset for the team, and Young is a player with a strong will to contribute to the team both on and off the ground. This recruitment is a reinforcement that means a lot to both the team and the club."
Young met Park Ji-sung, who represents Korean soccer, when he moved to Manchester United from Aston Villa in 2011. Young was a position competitor with Park Ji-sung. Park Ji-sung left the team in 2012, a year after Young moved. Young stayed at Manchester United for 10 years until 2020. Young then moves on to Italy and plays for Inter Milan to win the Serie A title in the 2020-2021 season.
In the summer of 2021, he returned to England, rejoined Aston Villa and moved to Everton in 2023. Young is well past his retirement as a footballer. Attention is focusing on whether Ipswich Town will be the last team in Young's football career or continue its challenge.
