Torino signing Vlasic: Turin better than London

Nikola Vlasic is happy to have signed permanently with Torino.

The midfielder had his media presentation yesterday after signing permanently from West Ham.

The club believe in me and it was important to feel the trust of the club and the coach," Vlasic said.

I felt the desire to play again and it was an easy choice. This club has room for improvement and I like to feel part of the project. This club want to raise the bar, we are going in the right direction.

London is London, but Turin is the best city," continued Vlasic.

The weather is better and you can walk everywhere. I live in the city centre which is ideal for my family and me. It is very similar to Split.

Torino have always been my first option; other clubs were interested, but I had a deal with Toro and now I am really happy."
