Lys Mousset says the ambition of Sheffield United persuaded him to leave Bournemouth.

The Blades made Mousset their record-signing last week.

"It's a good move for me," Mousset told The Star.

"I spoke with the manager as well, he wanted me for the Championship but Bournemouth, they didn't want me to come.

"Sheffield United are a huge club with big ambition. I'm ready for this.

"I wanted to come and this is right for me I believe. Now, I can't wait to get started and take the opportunity I have been given."
