Joao Mario has assured Lokomotiv Moscow they will form ‘a successful partnership’ after the midfielder officially completed a move from Inter.
Mario joins on an initial loan with a reported option to buy for €18 million, having been left out of Inter’s squad for their match against Lecce on Monday.
The Portugal international was given a lavish introduction by his new club on Tuesday and thanked Lokomotiv for signing him yesterday.
“Thank you for the opportunity,” Mario wrote on his official Instagram page.
“I’m really happy to be here. I’m sure this will be a successful partnership.”
