Michael Chopra has left Cardiff City and joined Ipswich Town for an undisclosed fee.

The 27-year-old former Newcastle United and Sunderland striker has penned a three-year contract at Portman Road.

Chopra told his new club’s official website: “I enjoyed my time at Cardiff but this is a new start for me at Ipswich and I’m looking forward to it.

“I spoke to the manager [Paul Jewell] and was impressed with his plans for the Club. I know some of the players here as well and from talking to them, it was clear there is real ambition at Ipswich.

“I can’t wait to get going and the target is to help the Club reach the Premier League.”

Jewell added: “Michael is a top quality striker with a proven track record when it comes to scoring goals.

“He is just the type of player we are looking for to help take this Club forward.”
