Ipswich Town

The Club is delighted to announce the signing of Sweden international JensĀ CajusteĀ from Napoli on loan until the end of the season.

The 25-year-old midfielder came through the ranks at Swedish side Orgryte before making the move to FC Midtjylland in 2018, where he won two Danish cups and a Danish Superliga title across a four-year period with the club.

A spell in Ligue 1 followed for Jens, who spent a season at Reims, and then he signed for Napoli in August 2023 where he made 26 Serie A appearances last season.

This summer he has featured twice for Sweden, against Denmark and Serbia, and in total he has earned 23 caps for his countryā€™s senior side.

Jens also arrives at Portman Road with European experience having featured in the Champions League for both FC Midtjylland and Gli Azzurri.

ā€œThis feels great and Iā€™m happy to be here,ā€ Jens told TownTV.

ā€œIt took a little while with the negotiations but Iā€™m finally here and Iā€™m very excited.

ā€œIā€™ve had great conversations with the Manager and this seems like a very interesting project. Itā€™s an ambitious club and a team that is progressing.

ā€œIā€™m a player that works hard and I want to contribute in attack and defence. I want to play as much as possible and Iā€™ll be looking to get some good tackles in!”

Kieran McKenna added: ā€œWeā€™re really happy to add Jens to the squad.

ā€œHe gives us another different profile to our midfield and puts us in a strong position in that department.

ā€œJens has a lot of experience across top leagues in Europe and in international football. He brings good physical and technical qualities to the squad and he is a very dedicated and committed professional.ā€
