Wolves seal signing of Sunderland's Halford
Sunderland utility man Greg Halford has joined Premier League new boys Wolves for an undisclosed fee.
"I'm really excited about moving down to Wolves," the 24 year old told Wolves' official website.
"It is going to be an exciting season for the club going into the Premier League and hopefully we can push on and establish ourselves in the division.
"Wolves are obviously a big club and the infrastructure is all there.
"There's a great training ground, great stadium and a large fanbase and all the plans are in place for Wolves to really establish themselves."
"I know there has been interest from Wolves for a while and apparently a call went in not long after the play-off final," he added.
"That went a long way to making up my mind to be honest, how keen the manager was to get the deal done.
"It always plays a big part when a manager shows how much he wants you to join and obviously I'd also heard a lot of good things about him from other people."
"Trying to prove myself at the top level is another main reason for the move.
"I thought I did well in the Championship (on loan) last season but want to do well in the Premier League as well.
"There probably wasn't going to be that chance for me at Sunderland but I'm delighted to take the opportunity of trying with Wolves."
