Town have confirmed the signing of Forest Green Rovers striker Kieffer Moore on an 18-month deal, TWTD having revealed that the Blues were close to signing the 24-year-old earlier today.
Moore, who has previously played in the Championship for Yeovil, is understood to have cost a nominal fee believed to be in the region of £10,000 with his contract up at the end of the season.
The frontman, who is ineligible for Tuesday's FA Cup replay at Lincoln as he wasn't with the Blues when the first tie was played, was at Portman Road today to undergo a medical and watched this afternoon's match from the directors' box.
Torquay-born Moore, who is 6ft 5in tall, started his career with Truro City before moving on to Dorchester Town, Yeovil Town - with whom he played in the Championship in 2013/14 in which he scored five goals in 24 appearances in all competitions - and then Norwegian side Viking before signing for Vanarama National League side Forest Green in January last year, signing an 18-month deal. He joined another National League club Torquay on loan in November.
With Forest Green he has scored seven goals in 17 starts and 17 sub appearances, while he netted five times in four games for Torquay including a hat-trick. In November he won his first and only England C cap in a game against Estonia's U23s.
The striker is viewed as a prospect with the potential to play in the Championship, while the Blues are understood to have three bids in for higher profile players with Rotherham's Danny Ward - who is not in the Millers squad today - remaining a target.
Town boss Mick McCarthy has previously had success when delving into the non-league market, signing Michael Kightly from Grays when at Wolves and Tyrone Mings from Chippenham since taking over at Portman Road.
