Breaking into London with foreign EB experience?

Hey guys, so I'm based in a major market outside Europe (think Singapore/Dubai/Tokyo), I have local banking experience and I'll be working at a bank with the most deal flow in the region (moelis/rothschild) this summer. I'm trying to make the move to London, and was targeting summer analyst/grad roles for the 2027 cycle. I was wondering if anyone's made this transition, or your thoughts of how foreign EB experience is viewed in London, and how difficult this transition would be.
