Mouse position relative to sf::view

I made a view centered on the avatar of the player sprite, and after 3 days of brain storming all I've got is (basically) this:

    xVeiwMouse = xWindowMouse - Playerx;//(new mouse coord) = (mouse coord relitive to window) - (playersprite coord)
    yVeiwMouse = yWindowMosue - Playery;//same, but with y

which doesn't work.

I need the mouse's coordinates relative to a view, centered on the player.

Something like this?

sf::Vector2f mouse_pos = window.mapPixelToCoords(sf::Mouse::getPosition(window));
sf::Vector2f relative = player.getPosition() - mouse_pos;

Check the official documentation and tutorials for further explanations on the used functions.
