Former Nigeria international midfielder, Dickson Etuhu, has moved to Swedish Allsvenskan side, AIK Stockholm, on a two-year contract.
Etuhu, 32, has played for English sides like Sunderland and Fulham, and was part of Nigeria's squad to the 2010 World Cup and has had over hundred appearances in the Barclays Premier League.
"I do not know much about Swedish football but I learn very quickly. I have good friends in the Swedish national team and Martin Olsson has said that it is a good league that is making steady progress," Etuhu told Soccer Channel.
"This is the best club to play for."
Etuhu, who started out at Manchester City's academy, also said he is ready for his latest challenge and wants to help the team regain the league title from Malmo FF who were able to get into Uefa Champions League group stage this season.
"I know there is great passion at the club, it's a great club. We can absolutely win the league, I think so.
"I'm looking forward to getting started, this is special, it's better than England," the former Preston North End and Norwich City midfielder said.
Etuhu reportedly turned down offers from English club to seal a move to the Stockholm club on Tuesday.
