Ferran Torres was unveiled as a Barcelona player on Monday following his winter move from Premier League champions Manchester City.
The new-boy has signed his contract with the Catalans and was introduced to fans at the Camp Nou who came out to welcome the Spain international to Barca.
Torres spoke about his delight at joining Barcelona following his unveiling press conference.
“I’ve always said it, it was very clear to me. I went to City to return to one of the greats in Spain,” he told reporters at Camp Nou on Monday.
“I was prepared to assume this responsibility. I want to return Barca to the place where it deserves.”
These Ferran’s comments were shared on Twitter by City Xtra, and it attracted plenty of attention from Man City fans.

This statement only goes to prove that Pep and City were right to let him go. We don’t need weak minded, unmotivated players upsetting the finely tuned machine that is Manchester City!!
Good riddance!
