Congratulations, Dro, and welcome to Paris Saint-Germain! What are your initial feelings?
"Thanks very much! I'm very happy and incredibly excited. This is a proud moment for me and for my family, and I can't wait to get started."
Having come through FC Barcelona's academy, you're now taking the next step in your career at Paris Saint-Germain. How does that feel?
"It's a big step. I made the decision to keep growing as a player, and I believe that this is the best place for me to do so."
Paris Saint-Germain has a young team and an ambitious project. Is that why you chose to join the club?
"It's why I'm here. I believe there's nowhere better for me to grow because the current project with the young players here is incredible. That's thanks to the coach and to everyone who makes it possible, and it's why I'm here."
Can you describe yourself as a player and as a man?
"I'm a creative player who likes to run with the ball while making good decisions and being entertaining to watch. I'm also a quiet, small-town guy who's very family-orientated. I like to enjoy life with my people. I'm calm and quiet; I like being alone and with the people I love, but, yes, I'm a calm person."
Finally, do you have a message for the Paris fans?
"I can't wait to see them, to get started and to check out the stadium. Ici c’est Paris !"
