Former Lorient attacker Jordan Ayew is thrilled with his move to Aston Villa.
The Ghana international completed his switch earlier today.
He passed a medical at Villa's Bodymoor Heath training base on Monday morning before joining up with his new team-mates.
"When I spoke to the coach I knew this was the place for me," he told avfc.co.uk. "I didn't think twice. I knew he was the right coach for me.
"He has so much enthusiasm and determination for the game of football.
"It took 10 seconds to work out he was the right coach for me and Aston Villa was the right team for me.
"My dream was to play for a big team in England - and Aston Villa is undoubtedly one of the greats in English football."
Ayew is now looking to make an impact in the Barclays Premier League.
"It's the biggest in the world," he said. "That's why when the opportunity came, I didn't have to think twice.
"I know all about the Premier League because I have a big passion for football. I watched all the games when I was in France.
"I know all about the team and I know all the players by name."
