Graham Jumped at Chance to Join Town - Ipswich Town News
New loan signing Jordan Graham says he jumped at the chance to join the Blues on loan. The right-sided winger is at Portman Road until January 4th.
"The gaffer [Paul Lambert] told me on Tuesday night that Ipswich wanted me and I jumped at it,” the 18-year-old told the club site.
"I’ve played for the U21s at Villa for a couple of years but the move here is great for me, this is the challenge I want and I can’t wait to get going and show what I can do.
"It’s going to be a great experience for me. I know Ipswich has got a great history and the fanbase is really big as well.
"The gaffer at Villa said it was the perfect place for me to come and play football. He said Ipswich is a good club, that they get good crowds and that the manager here is a top guy, so I’m delighted to have a chance to play here.”
