"Adam's really excited to be here. He's a competitor and he's got something about him that we need now. He was really keen to come and join Wolves, and wants to play for Wolves, so it's a really good day for the club getting him in. He's someone I've admired for a long, long time. He's a really good footballer, a goal threat and a goalscorer."
"He's someone who can play off the sides if we wanted him to, he'll see himself as a nine and as a goalscorer, but he's more than that. We were only going to bring people in if we felt they could really affect the group in a positive way, not just on the pitch, but around the whole place as well."
"Wolves have sealed the signing of striker Adam Armstrong from Southampton. The 28-year-old has joined for an initial 7m, ahead of the expected arrival of midfielder Angel Gomes on loan from from Marseille. Armstrong moved to Molineux on a three-and-a-half year contract after the 48m sale of striker Jorgen Strand Larsen to Crystal Palace also went through on deadline day. Wolves are bottom of the Premier League, 18 points from safety, and planning for an expected relegation to the Championship."
