Manchester City striker’s departure is set to be confirmed within 24 hours.

The last portions of the paperwork are still being finished, and Ipswich is anticipated to confirm the signing within the next 24 hours.

As part of the £20 million transaction, Manchester City will have a 20% sell-on clause.

Delap spent time in Derby County’s junior system before joining Manchester City.

The Cityzens have helped him develop through loan spells at Stoke City, Preston North End, and Hull City.

Delap will now try to rise to the challenge of playing Premier League football with Ipswich in the upcoming season.
