The 30-year-old forward will sign a three-year contract after his season-long loan with the Tractor Boys.
During his 2025/26 loan, Akpom made 29 appearances (largely as a substitute) and scored two goals. He started just seven games, with his last start (and goal) dating from Ipswich’s 3-0 win over Oxford United on New Year’s Day.
Akpom chose to join Ipswich in August 2025, turning down other interest. He joins on a permanent deal set to run until 2029.
