Joe Aribo has said he is “buzzing” and “can’t wait to get going” at new English Championship club Leicester City.
Aribo has joined Leicester City on loan until the end of the season from another Championship side, Southampton.
“I’m buzzing. For me, it’s amazing to have got it done and I just can’t wait to get going,” the 29-year-old Aribo said after he completed his transfer.
“Honestly, [the facilities are] unbelievable. It just takes your breath away almost. I can’t wait to get started. It’s a great Club.”
Aribo said he hopes to play regularly at his new club and that his versatility allows him to play in various positions.
“I was excited. I just wanted a change of scenery, to get back playing, and be at my best again. It’s been a difficult season with not much playing time,” he said.
“Of course, I’m excited just to have the chance to be back out there firing again. It’s important that I can prove a point and be my best self every single day.
“I’m someone who’s willing to take risks, exciting on the ball, and I’ll try and pop up with a few goals as well. I always joke with my friends that I can play anywhere.
“I’m pretty much a central midfielder [or a] No.10. I think it’s important because the managers change things sometimes in a game. I can adapt to different roles, different positions, it’s not too much of a problem for me.”
