Freddie Ladapo becomes a loan signing.
Charlton Athletic is pleased to announce the temporary acquisition of prolific goal-scorer Freddie Ladapo. The 30-year-old striker, coming on loan from Ipswich Town for the remainder of the 2023/24 season, has achieved promotion from League One in the last two seasons and has consistently reached double figures in goal-scoring for the past four campaigns at this level.
Ladapo, who has made 22 appearances for Championship side Ipswich in all competitions this season, expressed his excitement about joining Charlton: “I’m really happy to be joining Charlton. I’m so excited to be here and I’m looking forward to seeing what we can achieve during the rest of the season.”
Charlton’s Head Coach, Michael Appleton, is thrilled to make Ladapo the sixth signing for the team: “Freddie’s a massive goal threat who brings lots of quality. He’s a player who’s comfortable playing with his back to goal and running towards goal. He’s very quick, he’s athletic, he’s got a very good record at this level, and he’s a really exciting signing. I think everyone is going to look forward to having him on board.”
