According to reports, Brentford had made multiple offers for Hutchinson, with the latest bid being £35 million, just before the release clause expired on Tuesday. However, Ipswich was not willing to consider anything less than the full £35 million for the 22-year-old attacker.
Hutchinson has been a valuable player for Ipswich, recently participating in the European Under-21 Championships, where England won the trophy for the second time in a row. Despite the setback, Ipswich's manager, Keith Andrews, remains interested in signing Hutchinson, who is valued at around £40 million.
With Hutchinson's contract set to expire in 2029, it seems likely that he will be transferred to another club soon. Brentford may need to revisit their offer and increase their bid to secure the signing of the former Chelsea star.
