Lokomotiv Moscow have signed Inter Milan midfielder Joao Mario.
He moves to Lokomotiv on a season-long loan with an 18m option to buy, and he was presented by his new club on Tuesday evening.
I'm very happy to join Lokomotiv," remarked the midfielder.
I know this is a great club. They've signed many famous and experienced players.
I asked [Manuel] Fernandes and Eder about Lokomotiv when we played for the Portuguese national team.
I consulted Eder before the transfer. He told me Lokomotiv were a good team with a wonderful atmosphere.
Their participation in the Champions League is also an important factor."
