Premier League switch favourable for Cardiff's Eikrem

Cardiff City new boy Magnus Wolff Eikrem admits he is loving life in the English Premier League.

The 23-year old Norwegian midfielder has made two substitute appearances for the Bluebirds since joining from Heerenveen earlier this month and his experiences thus far have suggested to him that England's top flight is where he wants to be.

"I'm really enjoying playing in the Premier League, it's been a dream of mine my whole life and hopefully I can contribute even more in the coming games," he told Cardiff's official website in the wake of the 4-2 loss at Manchester City on the weekend.

"That's what you want to be doing as a footballer, you want to be playing against players like those at Manchester City because then you know where you're at and what you need to work on."
