Liverpool forward, Adam Lallana has come out to share his reason for quitting Liverpool for Brighton
He recently revealed that he joined Brighton because the club is the perfect fit for him.
According to him, he has always wanted to leave his comfort zone at Anfield and Brighton offered him the opportunity to do so.
He added that he is currently looking to push himself and improve his football at his new club.
His words, “For me in my life now, if you know me as a person, I don’t think I’m ever in my comfort zone,”
I’m always looking to push myself and improve myself.
“One thing I have learnt over the last year is that there is no limit to whatever you want to achieve. You can always better yourself every day. I’ve seen the best players in the world living with that attitude.
“People might see it as a brave move but I see it as a very calculated but perfect move. The perfect fit. It will probably go down as a big signing for Brighton but I don’t see it as that. I see it as a big move for myself coming to a fantastic club with huge ambition. I’m looking forward to being part of a great journey that lies ahead.
“I see the qualities of Brighton. I’ve seen the infrastructure. I’ve spoken to the manager. Spoken with the chairman and Dan Ashworth, the technical director. There’s a plan there and a vision and a project.
“I’m so excited to be part of that. Add to what they’ve already got and hopefully improve every aspect. Willingness to learn and keep improving as a player and person and I think we can achieve good things moving forward.”
“It’s obviously very apparent that we are best mates and our wives are best mates, our kids are best friends and go to the same schools,”
“I didn’t want to hold anything in or block anything in. I felt like I got all my emotion out. As soon as Saturday arrived and Sunday came and I knew I was heading down for my medical on Monday, I was so ready for my next challenge.
“Everything was Brighton this and Brighton that. I know it sounds pretty blunt to put a line under Liverpool but it is. I felt like I dealt with leaving Liverpool and want to make that transition over to Brighton. I felt like I’ve done that as well as possible.
“Me and Jordan will be in contact forever. Best mates. I’ll have to introduce him to the south coast so when we are both retired maybe he’ll have a little place down there, who knows.”
