📸 Tim Payne celebrates his move to Olimpia! | OneFootball

Tim Payne makes his first statements after finalizing his signing with Paraguay’s Olimpia, after his name became a global phenomenon. 

"It wasn’t an easy decision, but it feels right. Olimpia is a great club with 48 league titles and three Copa Libertadores trophies. It’s a real step forward, and I can’t wait to put on this shirt and give it my all." 

The New Zealander also noted that it will be like coming home "in a way," since his wife and son speak Spanish because of his spouse’s nationality.
