Ryan Stevenson has completed his move to Ipswich Town from Hearts for an undisclosed fee.

Sky Sports reported yesterday that a fee of around £50,000 had been agreed for the midfielder.

The 27-year-old scored 11 goals in 67 appearances for the Edinburgh club, but has not featured for over a month due to a dispute regarding payment of players' wages.

The former Chelsea, St Johnstone and Ayr United player could make his debut on Tuesday against West Ham.

Stevenson said: "I had a few other teams interested but when a club of the stature of Ipswich comes in for you, you take it.

"It's a massive opportunity for me, too big to turn down and I can't wait to get going.

"Playing in England has always been a big ambition of mine and to have a chance of playing for such a big club and alongside so many top players is fantastic."
