The youngster made his first senior appearance in 2019, appearing as a second-half substitute in a 0–1 away loss to Colchester United in an EFL Trophy group stage match.
He became the second youngest player to make the first-team debut for the club at 16 years and 31 days old.
Chirewa signed his first professional contract with Ipswich on 2 November 2020, signing a deal until 2022, which was extended with another year to 2023.
The 19-year-old has featured mostly in the U23 team and his performances have seen him attracting attention from Arsenal and West Ham.
