Town’s new signing Luciano Civelli has thanked Town fans for the reception they gave him against Blackpool on Saturday.

Luca: "The fans were magnificent for me. I have to say thank you. They gave me a great reception and it gave me a great lift, I thought I did quite well but the important thing was the result and that was hard for the team. I hope that we can play better against Nottingham on Wednesday and win the game because it is very important.

"My fitness is quite good. I was pleased I lasted 70 minutes. I was a little tired then but I think I will be 100 per cent fit in one or two games."

Luca also assured fans there is no issue with his passport, despite his brother being investigated in France because of another player from Argentina playing with a fake passport, Luca added: "The grandfather and grandmother of my mother were Italian."

A Town spokesman added: "The Football Association has checked Luciano's paperwork and cleared the player. Included in that was a look at his passport."
