Brighton star Kaoru Mitoma: I'm enjoying the pressure

Brighton star Kaoru Mitoma is relishing his time in the spotlight in the Premier League.

The Japanese winger has been in red hot form with the Albion over the past few weeks.

The 25-year-old has scored four goals in his last five league matches, including a game winner against Bournemouth last weekend.

“I'm trying to score goals in every match, then you can ride on the momentum," he said to the club website.

"I don't mind, but it's true that people look at me [to deliver] and in a way I'm enjoying that pressure.

“Right now I hope I can score a goal or make an assist every match and it is going well."
