Van La Parra aiming for Premier League

New signing Rajiv van La Parra is hopeful of impressing Wolverhampton Wanderers supporters when the new season gets underway in two months' time.

Van La Parra has signed a three-year deal at Molineux after leaving Heerenveen, and the former Netherlands Under-21 international believes that his style of play could help the club earn promotion to the Premier League.

The 23-year-old is quoted by the Express & Star as saying: "This club has the ambition to go to the Premier League and that's why I signed for Wolves. I've heard supporters here like to see wingers – hopefully they will like me as well.

"I think that I'm a player who always wants to search for the one-against-one opportunities. I love football and I don't want to stay too long without the ball.

"For me, that's the most important thing because I'm the attacker and I search for that chance when I can."

Van La Parra arrives in England having scored 14 goals in 82 appearances with his former club.
