Former Brazil international Vágner Love has outlined his reasons for signing with Shandong Luneng Taishan.

The 29 year-old joined the Chinese Super League side in July 2013 from CSKA Moscow for €12 million.

Love admits the desire of the club’s owners to be amongst the best teams in Asia enticed him into making the move.

“The club’s ambitions convinced me,” he told FIFA.com. “During the negotiations they showed me the plans of winning championships and becoming one of Asia’s top clubs. So I decided I should move on and face up to some new challenges in China.”
