Leonardo Ulloa has revealed that he could not turn down the chance to join Leicester City from Brighton & Hove Albion.
The 27-year-old striker signed a four-year contract with the Premier League club on Tuesday.
With Brighton having failed to reach the Premier League last season, Ulloa admits that it was impossible to reject the opportunity to play in the top flight with Leicester.
"I wasn't thinking about leaving Brighton. I've loved it here, my family have settled here and I was looking forward to another season - but when the opportunity is there in front of you, it's very hard to say no," he told the club's official website.
"Brighton are an ambitious club, who are heading in the right direction, but this at this stage in my career I want the opportunity to play in the Premier League."
Ulloa scored 25 goals in 52 matches while he was at Brighton.
