Carson Signs Deal - Ipswich Town News
Midfielder Josh Carson has signed his new Town contract. The Northern Irishman has put pen to paper on two-year deal with an option for a third season.
Tweeting after signing in chief executive Simon Clegg's office this afternoon, Carson said: "Signed, sealed, delivered! Buzzing!"
Speaking to the club site, the 18-year-old added: "Obviously I'm delighted that it's done and dusted now and I've signed here for the next two years.
"I've not got involved in the negotiations, I've left that to my agent but there was never any doubt that I'd be staying here.
"I'm still only 18 and over the next two years I want to build on what I have done so far and get myself in the first-team week-in, week-out.
"That's my immediate target to play as much first team football as I can at Ipswich Town. I've come up through the ranks here and I really want to help the club push on."
