Joao Moutinho: 'I will bring winning mentality to Wolverhampton Wanderers'

New Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder Joao Moutinho has said that he will bring a winning mentality to the club following his arrival from Monaco.

The 31-year-old Portugal international has put pen to paper on a two-year deal at Molineux in a deal thought to be worth around £5m.

Wolves will be taking part in their first Premier League campaign since 2011-12 next term, but Moutinho is still going into the season hoping to win every game.

"I'm very excited it's a new experience with a great club. I hope to help the club achieve their objectives. And I want to help the team, the players and club to progress," he told Wolves TV.

"I hope we can win all the games. I know it's very difficult with big teams in Premier League but our mentality, my mentality is to play every game to win and I hope with my experience and my quality as a team we can achieve our goals and our objectives. This club is a big club and a very good project and have players I know very well and I hope to help this club progress more and more and win the most games as possible. I hope Wolves can do good things in the Premier League and the other competitions.

"I hope [compatriots Rui Patricio and manager Nuno Espirito Santo] are going to help. It's the second time I move country. I changed Portugal to France and France to England. I did this in Monaco and the club went from the second division to the Premier Division (Ligue 1) and I hope to do the same. To win is my mentality.

"It's one of my objectives to play in the Premier League and now is the opportunity and I hope to help a lot this club. I'm going to do everything I have to to help."

Moutinho has won four league titles in two different countries, in addition to one Europa League crown and the 2016 European Championship with Portugal.
