Impact Luis is finally ready to enter the fold after missing Ipswich's opening two league matches with an undisclosed issue. The midfielder has trained throughout the week and could make his club debut against Liverpool, though it remains to be seen whether manager Gary O'Neil will immediately hand him a starting role or ease him back from the bench. With Azor Matusiwa still unavailable, Luis' return provides a timely boost to Ipswich's options in central midfield.

Impact Luis missed the season opener against Sunderland despite previously appearing on track to be available, but he now has a chance to make his season debut Sunday.

Missing from squad, cause unclear Luis (undisclosed) is absent from Ipswich's squad for Saturday's final friendly against Union Berlin, with the reason not yet disclosed, just one week before the Premier League sea...

Impact Luis joined Ipswich this summer from Burnley following the club's relegation to the Championship, signing a five year deal after a mediocre campaign in which he started 25 of 31 appearances without a goal and just two assists.

Signs with Ipswich Luis has completed a transfer to Ipswich Town from Burnley, according to his new club.

Impact Luis is on his way back to the Premier League following Burnley's demotion back to the Championship, as he signs with newly promoted Ipswich. He is coming off a mediocre season last campaign, starting in 25 of his 31 appearances, but only earning two assists and no goals. He signed a five-year deal with his new club, so he could be around the club for years to come, hoping he can help them keep their status in the Premier League more than he did with the Clarets.

Assists for draw Florentino Luis assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Liverpool.

Impact Luis created a single chance, but that chance proved to be crucial as Marcus Edwards found the back of the net. Luis is a defensively-minded midfielder, so this isn't likely the start of a major goal-contributing run. Still it's a nice boon in a tough trip to Anfield against a stingy Liverpool side.

Signs with Burnley on loan Luis has been loaned to Burnley from Benfica, according to his new club.

Impact Luis is seeing a major move in his career as he joins the Premier League on loan for a season, heading to Turf Moor with Burnley. The 26-year-old has plenty of experience, serving in UCL and Europa League while holding a starting spot with Benfica for a few seasons now, a workhorse in the midfield during his career. He will likely push for starting time with Burnley soon after joining and will hope to make a good impression, as the club does hold the option to make the deal permanent.

Starts in draw Luis won one tackle in 71 minutes of Wednesday's 1-1 draw with Osasuna.

Impact Luis has started just four times in 2022 but two have come in the last four matches. Still, his value is hardly noticeable with three tackles won over the last four matches, so it will take more time for him to prove he can be reliable. Up next is a visit from Barcelona.

MAY 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Assists as substitute Luis assisted one goal from his only chance created in 25 minutes during Sunday's 4-0 win over Cadiz.

Makes nine tackles in loss Luis created two chances and made nine tackles (six won) and three interceptions during Sunday's 2-0 loss against Betis.

Impact Luis had his most impressive outing since joining Getafe, showing a lot of tenacity in the middle of the park and having his best marks in both tackles and interceptions.

Gelling well with new team Luis is adapting very quickly to his new team, according to manager Michel Gonzalez.
