New Shandong Luneng signing Vagner Love has spoken of his awe at the welcome afforded the Brazilian upon his arrival in China.

Love was welcomed by a crowd of admirers upon touching down in the country and promised that he will give his all for his new club.

“My arrival in China has made ​​me feel a strong attachment to football with beautiful fans. I felt a great preparation for my arrival, which reflects the seriousness of this club. Hopefully I can adapt as soon as possible to help my team,” he told reporters.

The Chinese Super League side announced the signing last week although they did not disclose the fee, but they revealed that negotiations were complicated, lasting three months to be finalized.

The Chinese club highlighted his successful career at Flamengo and CSKA Moscow, as well as at the Brazilian national team, having won the 2004 and 2007 Copa América titles.

Vagner Love had returned to CSKA Moscow in January, as Flamengo’s new board refused to pay the remaining installments to complete his transfer to the rubro-negro.

He had failed to perform well for the club in a consistent basis, despite having strong connections with the previous Flamengo board.
