Ed Sheeran has a big heart for Ipswich Town’s third division soccer team. He supports the club as a shirt sponsor. Now the pop star has received a very special honor.
Pop star Ed Sheeran (“Bad Habits”) has been accepted into the team of the English third division Ipswich Town. He will be number 17 for the 2021/22 season, as the club from the county of Suffolk announced.
“This is really crazy,” the 30-year-old musician was quoted in a club announcement. ‘When Ipswich told me this, I thought you were kidding. But I love the idea. “
So he is – theoretically – entitled to run for Ipswich. However, he hopes the jersey number is only symbolic. “Because I want to see us move up. And that won’t happen when I play! “
Three months ago it was announced that Sheeran will be the club’s shirt sponsor for an initial year. The back number campaign should now be a thank you from the club for supporting the chart striker. The Briton has been a fan of the “Tractor Boys” since childhood and lives in a large estate in Suffolk. His music studio is also located there.
