"It was a tough decision to make because I could have gone to Chelsea as well but after talking to my national team manager Frank Yallop, I decided Ipswich was the club for me." he told the Official Club Website.
"Frank told me how Ipswich bring their young players on and give them a chance and I've got family in London and they said the same thing, that the Academy here is the best around.
"I also feel that I have a better chance of making an impact at Ipswich and hopefully get in the first-team and now I can't wait for the summer so that I can get my career going here."
