I will take my career as it comes,\u201d Simon told Tribalfootball.com.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cYes. I was aware of some clubs seeking to sign me like Brighton showing strong interest with their package to sign me, but the deal did not see the light of the day. I don\u2019t want to go into details about what happened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI have strong desire to play in the EPL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis is my dream, but things happen in football and I believe everything is for my good. When it is time, it is time. I believe in destiny.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTalking about offers from other Premier League clubs, I think my manager is in the best position to handle the business of transfer or offers that comes to my table. Mine is to play football and I leave my manager to handle that aspect for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhy not? It is the dream of most footballers to play in the EPL. It is the most followed league in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m glad that I have played in one of the best leagues in the world which is the La Liga. Playing against Lionel Messi is like possessing a fortune.
