    Alcacer: This is a good decision for myself and for Valencia



    Valencia have sold Paco Alcacer to Barcelona in a 30 million euro deal which the striker believes is positive both for him and for his former employers.
    Having come up through Los Che's youth system, the striker took the time to address his now-former club's fans as he completed his switch to the Camp Nou.
    "When I learned that there was an offer from Barcelona, I was honest with the president and I told her to consider it because it would be good for me in my career and it would also be positive for Valencia," he told Valencia's official TV channel.
    "Some people will understand that and some won't, but people have to understand others' decisions and respect them."
    Alcacer, who completed the move on his 23rd birthday, also spoke of his love for Els Taronges and of how much he loved his time at the Mestalla.
    "I will always keep Valencia in my heart after so many years here and I will visit the Estadio Mestalla to watch matches when I can," he said.
    As well as speaking to the official channel of his former club, the striker also spoke to the Blaugrana's official media upon his arrival in Catalunya.
    "I am very excited to start this new stage [in my career] and to give all I have," he told BarcaTV.
    "It is a privilege to be alongside [Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Neymar], the three players I consider to be the best in the world."
    The striker is expected to fit in easily given that he already knows Andre Gomes and given that he has played alongside a number of players in the squad for Spain - just as he'll do when taking on Belgium and Liechtenstein with La Roja over the coming days.
