I would say to go just to a normal FAA school and then convert your licences
Don't agree, this is exactly where a lot of people go wrong.
A 'normal' FAA school, despite all the best intentions, would not know what to do and how to do it as far as training to meet European specific requirements or standards even as far as Radio communications are concerned.
This could make for unpleasant surprises and a more expensive conversion.

FAA training alone is fine, excellent even, just go to a school that has the knowledge and experience with European students to amke sure its a seamless conversion.
