born in Bradford Jackson’s career has been unique. Before entering non-league football, he played for Bradford City and Guiseley in his early years.
He rose through the ranks in a manner reminiscent of a fairy tale, and Ipswich recently celebrated their promotion to the Premier League. While he did not play for the Reds, he spent time back in Yorkshire with Barnsley on his way to become the Champion.
The 30-year-old is out of contract this summer and it has been confirmed he will leave the Tractor Boys upon the expiry of his current deal.
“To end my time with the club on such a high, with a brilliant group of teammates and a manager who has always supported me, is something I’ll always be proud of. Ipswich Town will always have a special place in my heart and I wish everyone well for the future.”
He has been released alongside former Rotherham United midfielder Dominic Ball and Tractor Boys boss Kieran McKenna has paid tribute to the departing pair.
“I am certain both Kayden and Dominic will be real assets at whichever clubs they take the next steps in their careers and they will always be welcome at both Portman Road and Playford Road.”
