Huddersfield Town are being urged to secure the future of Tom Iorpenda, the 21-year-old midfielder who has returned from a successful loan spell at Notts County. Iorpenda scored three goals and provided eight assists in 53 appearances for the Magpies last season, helping them to promotion to League One via the play-offs.
What happened at Notts County?
Iorpenda's impressive form at Notts County has raised questions about his future at Huddersfield Town. The young midfielder was nominated for League Two's Young Player of the Year award and has been linked with a number of Championship and League One clubs.
Why it matters for Huddersfield Town
Huddersfield Town are looking to challenge for promotion in League One next season, and Iorpenda's future is a key decision for head coach Martin Drury. The Terriers have already made four new signings this summer, but Drury will likely be keen to strengthen his squad further in the remaining weeks of the transfer window.
What comes next?
Huddersfield Town fan pundit Graeme Rayner has urged the club to tie Iorpenda down to a new contract, citing his potential as a key player for the Terriers. With Iorpenda entering the final year of his current deal, the club must act quickly to secure his future.
Huddersfield Town have a history of developing young players, and Iorpenda's progress at Notts County has been impressive. However, the club must balance their desire to keep the young midfielder with the need to strengthen their squad for a promotion push.
The Terriers have been linked with a number of midfielders this summer, including Archie Collins, who is attracting interest from a number of Championship and League One clubs. However, Iorpenda's future remains a key issue for the club, and a decision must be made soon.
