Ipswich have announced the signing of Brazilian striker Emersonn from Toulouse.
The 21-year-old joins the promoted Suffolk club for an undisclosed fee, reported to be around £26.5 million ($35.5m), and has signed a five-year contract at Portman Road.
New Town boss Gary O'Neil, who took over after Kieran McKenna stepped down last month, has said the Brazil youth international can go on to make his mark in the English top flight.
"He is a young striker with real ability and potential who has had plenty of interest this summer, so for him to choose Ipswich Town is something we are very proud of," O'Neil said on the club website.
