Valencia defender Jose Gaya has admitted that his progress this season has surprised even him.
The 19-year-old has been with Los Che since 2006 – progressing through the youth ranks before making his debut in 2012.
This season, Gaya has appeared in 16 league games for the Spanish outfit, with his performances drawing a host of admiring glances from across Europe.
"For me, it's a dream. I never expected to be where I am at 19 years of age, but I always want more and I'm not satisfied with what I have got at the moment," he told the club's official website.
Gaya has three Spanish Under-21 caps to his name, but is yet to represent the star-studded senior team.
