New Ipswich Town loan signing Aaron McLean has admitted that ex Ipswich Town players played a part in convincing him to join the club.

The Hull City striker has signed on the dotted line at Portman Road until the end of the season and was one of two strikers who signed for Town on loan today. The other was Nottingham Forest marksman David McGoldrick who is at the club until May with a view to a full move in the summer.

Speaking about his move to Town to the Official Club Website, London born McLean said: "The move happened really quickly but obviously I’m delighted to be joining such a good club and hopefully I can help fire Ipswich up the table.

"I’m eager to be playing games and I’m raring to go. It’s been well publicised that Millwall were interested in me but then Mick came in and showed an interest and I’m delighted to be joining Ipswich.

“I know the area well as I’ve got a few friends down there who are Ipswich fans themselves and I know a few of the lads in the squad already. I also know Stockers, Alex Bruce and Liam Rosenior really well from Hull and they all speak positively of the Club.

“It’s a loan until the end of the season originally but you never know what’s going to happen in the future. If everything goes well for all parties then I’m sure me and the gaffer will look at it.”
