New Blackburn striker Mathias Jorgensen says he is excited to bring his A-game to Rovers - potentially starting at Ipswich on Saturday (15:00 GMT).
The 25-year-old Dane arrived on a three-and-a-half-year deal from Norwegian side Bodo/Glimt late on Thursday and trained with his new team for the first time on Friday.
With leading scorer Andri Gudjohnsen sidelined by a hamstring injury, Jorgensen could make his debut the following day.
He told BBC Radio Lancashire: "It's fun to try to bring your A-game immediately. I'll do my best for the club if the gaffer calls my name."
Jorgensen made three Champions League appearances for Bodo this season, having previously played for Aalborg and MLS side New York Red Bulls.
"Trying to adapt to a new culture and team, I have tried it before," he said. "I have some experience. I hope it will help me settle in quickly.
"It's such an intense league with so many games and so much quality in the teams, it's competitive and I'm excited to try to bring my best to the league and contribute to help the team to great success."
He added: "It's important I can help the team with hard work, that's the minimum criteria for getting success, then hopefully I can contribute with goals and assists.
"I think we're on a great journey. I am so excited to be here."
