English right-back Scott Sutter says it is "doubly special to be in the squad" for Switzerland's Euro 2012 Group G game against England in Basle on Tuesday.
The defender, who plays for Young Boys, turned down the chance to play for the Three Lions in favour of his adopted nation and revealed that Switzerland feels like home.
"I see Switzerland as my home now," he told Sky Sports.
The defender, who plays for Young Boys, turned down the chance to play for the Three Lions in favour of his adopted nation and revealed that Switzerland feels like home.
"I see Switzerland as my home now," he told Sky Sports.
"When I made the decision before about England, and not playing for Switzerland again, obviously I was a younger player. I'd only been in Switzerland for four years.
"Now I've been here for eight-and-a-half years and things look a lot different."
The 24-year-old also spoke about Ottmar Hitzeld and revealed just how highly he regarded the Swiss manager.
"He just wanted to find out about me as a person," added Sutter.
"Not just my football but where I come from, how my life is.
"When you just chat with him face-to-face you just think, 'This is Ottmar Hitzfeld that I'm talking to, like, one-on-one talking about my family!' It's a bit surreal. It's special."
The game will complete a memorable couple of weeks for Sutter who also faced the club he supported as a boy, Tottenham Hotspur, in Champions League qualifying last month.
