Wolves signing has his say on what he will bring to the squad

Wolves have long been targeting a new centre-back and have moved quickly to add the Ivory Coast international to their squad.

Agbadou was captain of his previous club, French side Reims, and believes his leadership skills will add to the Wolves dressing room.

He said: “I'm a fast player. For a defender, my body is very weird sometimes for someone. I'm a player who likes to play football, I'm strong also, and I'm a leader in the defence.”

“I think I can use this leadership for this team, and the coach told me about that also, it’s for that I'm here, so I can help him with my leadership.

“He (Vitor Pereira) told me the league is very fast, because if you have a few seconds that you don't have focus on the game, you can concede one goal. In five minutes, they can put two goals (past you). So I need to be careful, and after that, he told me he believed in me and he believed in my quality.

“But the French league is a good league and it’s similar to the Premier League, so it’s easier for me to adapt. My experience there it was good, so I think that it will be better for me.

I'm happy to be here, I'm waiting to make my debut with Wolverhampton, and I want to give all for the team, and give all for the Wolves.”

Agbadou is the latest Ivorian to pull on a Wolves shirt following fan favourite defender Willy Boly and the new boy says he spoke to the former Wolves man before signing for the club.

He added: “I'm happy to be here. This is a great team, an historic club, and I'm just waiting to making my debut.

“I know one African player (Willy Boly) who played here a few years ago, and I was following the club before, so I know that it’s a good team.

“I knew the team before I came, so this is not a surprise for me to be here, so I’m happy.

“My first impression is the city is very nice, and the stadium also. The coach told me that the atmosphere is amazing, so I waiting to see that

“(Boly)'s told me that also. He's like my big brother, so we talk a lot about family, so he speaks to me about Wolverhampton and he told me good things.”
