Ipswich Town midfielder Andre Dozzell has joined Championship club QPR for an undisclosed fee.

It's believed the R's triggered a £1 million buyout clause in Dozzell's contract.

The 22-year-old, who is the son of Ipswich legend Jason, came through the academy at Portman Road and scored on his debut at Sheffield Wednesday as a 16-year-old.

In total, Dozzell scored three goals in 93 appearances for Town.

Dozzell has signed a three-year deal with QPR.

"I have been at Ipswich since I was eight and I will always have love for the club, but I felt now was the right time to take this step in my career," said Dozzell.

"This takes me out of my comfort zone and I just think it's the right time."

Meanwhile, former Ipswich striker Freddie Sears has returned to Colchester United on a two-year deal.

He joins Luke Chambers and Cole Skuse in making the short switch down the A12.

Elsewhere in League Two, Stevenage have signed West Ham United goalkeeper Joseph Anang on a season-long loan, while in League One, MK Dons have signed Argentine goalkeeper Franco Ravizzoli on a free transfer.
