John Guidetti has thanked Stoke City for signing him on loan from Manchester City.
The Swedish striker, 21, joined the Potters on Tuesday in a deal that is due to run until the end of the season.
"It's fantastic to be here, and I am so grateful to the club for giving me the opportunity to show everybody I am capable of playing at this level," Guidetti told Stoke's official website.
"Once I knew of the interest, and had spoken to Mark Hughes, it was an easy decision for me to make to be honest. The club have showed a lot of belief in me, and have made me feel wanted."
Guidetti signed professional terms with City in 2008 but has made just one senior appearance for the club.
