Brighton hero Bruno Saltor admits his success with the club was never planned.
Albion's senior player development coach told The Argus the move required adapting in almost every facet of his life.
He said: “I came as an adventure. Not just myself, family wise as well. Not speaking any English, adapting to the culture, adapting to the food, adapting to everything.
“It's been a challenge every single day and that's what I and my family love. Every day you are still learning with the language, still learning different ways to cook, different ways to see life.
“It's been an incredible journey but I never would have expected to get where I am right now. It feels like home, as I said not just myself but my family as well, we love Brighton."
