He said: "We get on pretty well and a long time ago, when he found out I was coming here, he was very happy. I know he enjoys the city and the club.

"Now I have the confidence I can play here and I'm very happy to be at such a big club.

"Everything about English football is exciting. It's fast, it's end-to-end. It was my idea to come to the Premier League and enjoy this kind of game."
