Town manager George Burley has welcomed new signing Amir Karic: "Amir is a proven international player with a wealth of experience at the highest level for both his club and country. The skill which he demonstrated in the European Championships this summer will ensure that he can compete with the very best in the Premier League."

The Slovenian sounds a bit of a character and seems to be a full-back in the Stuart Pearce mould. Apparently during a period playing with Gamba Osaka he acquired the nicknames Tyson and Bulldozer. Looking forward to him playing all the more!
