Barcelona coach Ernesto Valverde insists he's happy with Andre Gomes.

Yesterday, Valverde offered a brief update on midfielder Gomes, who this week bravely admitted how badly he is struggling to cope with the demands and pressure of being a Blaugrana player.

"He is doing very well now and the public have turned with him and supported him," he said.

"That's very good for him but the one who has to take the positive steps on the field is Andre. He must move forward."
