Mick McCarthy has signed yet another former Wolves player after taking free agent Sylvan Ebanks-Blake on a deal until the end of the season.

The striker, 27, has not played since April after suffering a broken ankle and ligament damage and was unable to find another cub.

A former Manchester United youngster and England Under-21 international, Ebanks-Blake was the Championship top goalscorer in consecutive seasons during his time at Molineux, helping the side achieve promotion to the Premier League in 2009.

But he, along with Stephen Hunt and Christop Berra, was also part of the Wolves side that were relegated from the top flight and then the Championship.

Ebanks-Blake was signed by McCarthy for Wolves from Plymouth and is delighted to be working with him again.

‘It’s been on cards for a while now and I’m just pleased we’ve managed to get everything done and dusted,’ he told Town’s website.

‘I’ve worked with the gaffer [Mick McCarthy] and TC [assistant manager Terry Connor] before and we’ve had a lot of success in the past.

‘They played a big part in me wanting to come here.’
