Town have completed the signing of Sunderland keeper Márton Fülöp on a two-year deal. The Hungarian international, who trained with his new team-mates this morning, is understood to have moved for a fee of £750,000.
Much-changed Town fell to a 2-1 defeat at Watford despite an improved display. Nicky Forster sandwiched his fifth goal of the season between two from Hornets striker Darius Henderson, with the Blues denied what looked a certain penalty when Alan Lee was fouled by Malky Mackay.
Town s excellent home form faces its biggest test of the season on Saturday when second-placed Watford bring the division s top away record to Portman Road. The Blues have few injury concerns aside from Alan Quinn, who has a minor ankle problem.
