Winger Carayol excited by Ipswich move.
MUSTAPHA Carayol lost his smile at Nottingham Forest but is adamant Ipswich manager Mick McCarthy is just the right person to bring it back.
The Gambian international made just 17 starts in 15 months by the Trent before making a free-transfer switch on deadline day to Portman Road.
Since his debut for MK Dons in 2007, Carayol has turned out for 11 teams, but the 29-year-old believes he may have finally found a long-term home.
He may only be on an initial six-month contract at Ipswich, but the winger is desperate to put his frustrations behind him and concentrate on playing his best football under renowned motivator McCarthy.
Carayol said: “There’s nothing worse for an attacking player than if you’re having a bad 20 minutes or make a mistake, and you’re then looking over your shoulder at the manager, thinking he’s going to take you off.
“You want a manager that’s going to have your back and have belief in what you can do. I think I have that with Mick McCarthy at Ipswich.
