Maeda spent four and a half years at Celtic, during which he helped the club win five Scottish league titles, three Scottish Cups, and two Scottish League Cups. He made a significant impact with his pace and work rate.
The move marks a new chapter for Maeda as he returns to English football after his previous stint in the country. Ipswich Town, now back in the Premier League, is looking to strengthen their squad for the season ahead. Maeda becomes the latest addition to the team as they aim to establish themselves in the top flight.
Maeda expressed excitement about joining Ipswich and is eager to contribute to the team's success. The signing is seen as a major coup for the club, adding experience and proven quality to their forward line.
