"When I knew I had the possibility to come to Barca it really touched me, I cried a little even though I tried to hide my emotions.  "It has been a dream of mine - since childhood I wanted to come here. I'm very happy and excited to be here."I can't wait to play alongside these great players. I came here to progress and learn a lot with players who have more experience than me. "I'm already learning Catalan, but I don't speak it very well at the moment. I have come to the best club in the world and I hope to win everything here." Umtiti is only 22, but the centre-back wants to force his way into Barca's starting line-up immediately.He continued: "My standards are very high, I'm a player and competitor and want to play. I will work hard and show that I have the quality to help the club, I know there a good players in my position."I am grateful for this chance, I hope to adapt and settle in quickly."</blockquote>
