It’ll be a reunion in more ways than one for Enciso. The forward, of course, played under O’Neil last season, but he also spent time on loan at Ipswich, joining the club on loan from Brighton & Hove Albion in the latter half of the 2024/25 campaign.
Enciso will leave Strasbourg after just a season of football, having made 42 appearances across all competitions, scoring 12 and assisting nine.
