Georgiou: Fans Were a Factor - Ipswich Town News

New loan signing Anthony Georgiou is happy to be joining the club and says the support at Peterborough on Saturday was a factor in him deciding to moved to the Blues from parent club Tottenham until January.

Cyprus international Georgiou, 22, was at London Road on Saturday to watch his new team-mates in action before joining them for training this morning.

"I'm very happy with how things have turned out and I'm really excited to be here," he told iFollow Ipswich.

"I know how big this club is and what the aims are for the season. I was at the game on Saturday against Peterborough and was impressed with the support from the away fans.

"That was definitely a factor in me coming here. The atmosphere was brilliant and it made me want to play in those games and do my bit for the team going forward.

"I'm hoping to be involved tomorrow night because I'm ready to go and can't wait to get started.”

Georgiou is expected to be available for tomorrow’s home game against AFC Wimbledon at Portman Road.
