Edwards Joins Millwall - Ipswich Town News
Town skipper Carlos Edwards has joined Millwall on loan until May 3rd, the final day of the Championship season.
The 35-year-old, who is out of contract in the summer, has made only 11 starts and seven sub appearances for the Blues this season, scoring once.
The Trinidad and Tobago international told the club site: "It’s important for me at this stage of my career to be playing football week in, week out.
"When I heard Millwall were keen to take me, I jumped at the chance to go there and play games.
"I wish Ipswich well and I hope when I come back to the club at the end of the season that I will be available for the play-offs!”
Manager Mick McCarthy added: "He wants to play games but he’s not done that here lately.
"We have other lads in front of him, so it’s an opportunity for Carlos to go out and play some first-team football and we wish him well.”
Edwards is expected to make his debut for the relegation-threatened Lions when they take on Blackburn Rovers at the Den on Saturday.
No further deals in or out are expected before today's 5pm emergency loan deadline. Existing deals, such as Jonny Williams's loan from Crystal Palace, can still be extended after today for up to a maximum of 93 days.
