Kevin Gameiro pleased with first season

Sevilla forward Kevin Gameiro says that he has enjoyed his first season in Spain.

Sevilla forward Kevin Gameiro has revealed that he is pleased with how his first season in Spain has unfolded.

The French international moved to the Estadio Ramon from Paris Saint-Germain in the summer, but struggled to adapt to life in La Liga in the early part of the campaign.

Overall, however, it has been an impressive year for the 27-year-old, who has scored 21 times in all competitions.

"It's been a very good season, I've scored 21 goals. It wasn't an easy season though. When I arrived, I needed to adapt to Spanish culture and football," he told UEFA.com.

"I tried to adapt quite quickly, even though I suffered some injuries halfway through. Right now I feel physically fit, I feel good and I'm helping the team score goals.

"I haven't adapted my game to the Spanish league, because I think I possess the characteristics to play in this league and that's why I chose it rather than another. I am a small and fast player, quick – very quick, even. I am comfortable with the ball and that's allowed me to develop very well here."

Sevilla face Benfica in the Europa League final on Wednesday.
