Viktor Boudianski is delighted with his move to Lecce.
The Russian midfielder moved to Apulia from Udinese on a permanent basis this summer after spending the end of last year on loan to the Salentini.
"I'm very happy with what the boss has said about my return and I am so happy to be back," the 24-year-old said.
"I will do everything I can to help this team and I will be ready when my chance arrives. I feel good and I played a full 90 minutes in the last friendly. We are working with intensity and we will be in good condition for the Chievo game.
"The team hasn't changed a lot and many of the regulars from last season have been working together for years and that will help us in the bid to survive."
