00:00 To get back into English football is great.

00:03 It's obviously what I've wanted to do.

00:06 And to be honest, I've had opportunities over the last four, six weeks.

00:09 I've had other clubs as well to do that.

00:12 But I think since speaking to

00:14 to Birmingham and seeing the ambitions of the club,

00:18 where they want to go, where they want to get to, excited me.

00:21 And I want to be successful.

00:25 It's clear that the club want to be successful.

00:27 And everything we spoke about really was very similar.

00:32 So it was really an easy decision once I'd spoke to them.

00:36 But the Premier League is where we want to get to.

00:39 It's an ambition of mine.

00:42 It's an ambition of the clubs and we're putting everything in place

00:45 to make sure we do that in the near future.
