The 29-year-old striker passed a medical at Bloomfield Road yesterday and the paperwork has now been completed.

He went on to make 81 appearances, scoring 19 for Blues but was told by manager Mick McCarthy that he was free to look for a new club at the of last season.

Chopra was at the Town training ground this morning to say his goodbyes to his former team-mates and the Club staff.
