I'm just Excited to Prove Myself: Kalajdzic Completes Wolves Transfer

LONDON, Aug 31: Wolverhampton Wanderers have signed Austria international Sasa Kalajdzic from Bundesliga side Stuttgart on a five-year deal, the club announced on Wednesday. The striker joins, subject to visa and work permit, for around ?15 million ($17.5 million) with an option to extend his contract for a further 12 months.

The 25-year-old, who is not available for Wednesday's Premier League trip to Bournemouth, arrives at Molineux after three years in Germany, where he scored 24 goals in 60 games for Stuttgart.

"I'm two metres tall, but also not bad with my feet. I'm just hungry to score goals. I want to play good football and score many goals. I want to play attractive football. I'm a team player, I want to help the team, that's the most important thing in the end. When the team is looking good, I'm looking good as well. This is my aim for the upcoming matches," he said.

"Everyone tells me the Premier League is the toughest league, it's the NBA of football. I'm just excited to prove myself against the best because in this league the best players are playing. I want to develop as a player, as a person, and want to get as soon as possible to score, to show myself, and I'm really happy about it and looking forward to it," he added.

"I'm happy it's all been finished. It was a long, tough day, but in the end everything went well. I'm really thankful and really happy to be here. It was the club that wanted me the most in the end." IANS
