John Mousinhos kommentarer til signeringen
«I think everyone knows that this is something that’s been rumbling on for a while. So we’re delighted that we’ve managed to get it over the line and secure Tino’s signature – we’re excited to see what he’s going to bring.
We’ve got a player with Premier League capability, who’s excellent on the ball and has real athletic qualities. He can carry it, he can find a pass and he can score a goal – now he has to knit all that together on a consistent basis.
I think he can be a big threat for us. We’re bringing in a real talent and have to ensure we make the most of that. It’s a move that we thought was gone after bringing in Alex Robertson, but the injuries to Tom Lowery and Kusini Yengi meant it opened back up again. So we’re really glad that we’ve been able to complete the deal and I’m looking forward to working with Tino»
Tino Anjorins kommentarer etter at han hadde signert
«It’s a pleasure to be here and I’ve been welcomed by such lovely people already. I’m excited to get the deal done. I wanted to sign because of the programme they have for me to develop as a player and the aspirations the club has. It’s good that we’re on the same page and want to build something together. It could be really special.
You don’t need to sell Pompey – it’s a massive club and Fratton Park is such an establishment, plus there are the fans. It feels like a family and I love that. Everyone seems to be together and that’s what I want to come into. This is a new chapter in my life that I’m really excited for and it’s all about me developing. I feel I can do that here.”
Anjorin kjenner John Mousinhos assistent Jon Harley fra hans tid som trener i Chelsea:
«I’ve worked with him for years and he said so many good things about coming to Pompey. He’s really energetic, bubbly and happy – the perfect assistant you could want to keep the group together. The manager was also so knowledgeable about me and my career and I know he wants to help me develop here.”
