"It has always been my ambition. The Premier League is one of the best leagues in the world. Very competitive, with great games and the atmosphere in the stadiums is always special.

"I watch it a lot whenever I can and my whole family really likes to watch it too, so we are always watching and commenting on the games. And now, in the national team, I am able to exchange ideas with some players who are in the Premier League and they said that it really is a different and special championship to play."
