Along with compatriot and clubmate Barry Cotter, Drinan travelled to Sweden last week for a trial period with Gais. Cotter has now returned to Ipswich but Drinan has completed a move.
Despite his club’s relegation to League One for the first time in 62 years, Drinan continues to be cut adrift from Ipswich’s first-team equation by manager Paul Lambert.
The Cork native, who has yet to make a senior appearance for the Tractor Boys, was brought to Portman Road by Mick McCarthy in January 2018 following a spell with Waterford.
Having returned to Waterford on loan ahead of the 2019 SSE Airtricity League season, the 21-year-old scored seven times before heading back to Ipswich at the end of June.
Drinan took his tally of Ireland U21 caps to five at this summer’s Toulon Tournament.
