MICHAEL Chopra wants to fire Ipswich Town into the Premier League after agreeing a three-year-deal with the Blues.

The 27-year-old this afternoon signed from Cardiff City and wasted no time in revealing his ambitions – after losing out in the play-offs in consecutive seasons with the Bluebirds.

Chopra said: “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 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.”
