Breaking News: Ipswich Town Sensation Gwion Edwards Shocks Fans
Gwion Edwards, a former winger for Ipswich Town, has committed to Morecambe by agreeing to a new two-year contract with a one-year option.
The 31-year-old, who had been a free agent since Wigan Athletic dismissed him in the summer, signed a contract with the League Two team in January that would last until the end of the season.
With 22 games and three goals as the Shrimps ended 15th in the fourth division, he rapidly established himself as a vital member of the team.
Regarding his new contract, Edwards stated: “I’m happy to see it through to the end. I had a great time playing for the club last season, arriving in January, and everyone has been amazing.I can’t wait to get going in pre-season.”
With the games we played, it took some time to build up the load in the legs, but I believe that starting in March, I really rediscovered my form and started playing well. After missing nine months due to injury, I was eager to resume playing.
After moving to Morecambe, I felt like I fit in well. As time passed and I had the opportunity to play games and get to know people, I was offered a new job, which I took advantage of right away. “It has been crucial to obtain some sleep.
Even though I’ve been off my legs for two weeks, I’ve been going to the gym occasionally, and now I can’t wait to get back into it. Despite Morecambe having to operate under an EFL embargo due to HMRC for nearly two months, and while searches for a new manager and ownership to succeed Ged Brannan are still ongoing, the Welshman has inked a contract that will last until the summer of 2026.
During his tenure at Portman Road, Edwards made 108 appearances and scored 14 goals overall. In order to join Wigan in 2021, he declined a new contract with the Blues.
