Gary O'Neil has been appointed as the new manager of Ipswich Town. He replaces Kieran McKenna, who resigned despite leading Ipswich back to England's top flight after a year's absence, as reported by AFP.

O'Neil guided French side Racing Strasbourg to the Conference League semi-finals last season. The English coach previously managed in the Premier League with Bournemouth and Wolverhampton Wanderers.

"I'm looking forward to this new challenge. Ipswich has made significant progress in recent years, and I believe we can continue that trajectory," O'Neil stated after signing his contract.
