New Town signing Ryan Stevenson says he can’t wait to get his Town career started after agreeing to join the Blues from Hearts today. The 27-year-old is set to train with his new team-mates for the first time on Sunday.

Stevenson told the club site: "I had a few other teams interested but when a club of the stature of Ipswich comes in for you, you take it.

"It's a massive opportunity for me, too big to turn down and I can't wait to get going. I'm looking forward to training with the lads tomorrow and I want to hit the ground running, impress the manager and force my way into the side.

"Playing in England has always been a big ambition of mine and to have a chance of playing for such a big club and alongside so many top players is fantastic."
