I was watching the video about Cristiano Ronaldo apologizing to his fans in Shenzhen when he couldn't field himself in the friendly match there.

During the briefing, he said "I feel home here" and he added "I feel this is like my second home".

Since he's not a native speaker of English. Are these two sentences natural? If not, how can I express the same ideas?

I agree with Tarheel about the need for "at" in the first.
The second could also be taken to mean "I feel [that] this is, like, my second home". His English is at a level where he might well use "like" as a filler, as many native English speakers do.

"Since he's not a native speaker of English" is not a complete sentence.
