Anthony Knockaert cannot wait for a second crack at the Premier League after helping Brighton secure promotion on Easter Monday.
The Seagulls will play in England's top flight next season for the first time since the 1982/83 campaign, with Derby's late equaliser against Huddersfield meaning they are guaranteed to finish in the top two.
Knockaert is one of Brighton's players with some Premier League experience, having been promoted with Leicester in 2014, but he would make only three starts before being sold to Standard Liege.
He moved on to Brighton in January 2016 and proved to be one of the key players in their promotion charge, scoring 15 goals and being named Sky Bet Championship Player of the Year.
Knockaert said: "It's amazing and a great feeling. When you're a child, you dream about this.
"We're going to be there next season and we'll enjoy it.
"What a day for everyone at this football club. If anyone deserves it, it's this football club. I'm so buzzing for them.
"I was buzzing and all the fans were coming up to me. It was a long way to the dressing room and it was a really nice feeling and everyone was over the moon.
"It was an ambition and challenge for me, and they told me straight away that it was the club's ambition to reach the Premier League. It was amazing and all of the people involved in this football club deserve it."
Knockaert now wants to put the seal on Brighton's incredible season with the title, which they could confirm in front of the Sky Sports cameras at Norwich on Friday.
They need just one win, or a single Newcastle defeat, before the end of the season and Knockaert said: "It would be amazing for us (winning the title), we're one win away and we'll try everything to do it on Friday, and if not Friday, we'll try and do it against Bristol City at home.
"Some players never get memories like this in their career, so it's amazing for us."
