Barcelona striker Munir excited to make Valencia move

Barcelona striker Munir El Haddadi is excited over his loan move to Valencia.

Munir has been brought in to replace last season's top goalscorer Paco Alcacer, who moved in the opposite direction in a 30million euros (£27.3million) deal - with a further two million euros in add-ons - last week.

On joining Los Che, the versatile forward told the club's official website: "When I knew about the offer from Valencia I had no doubts, I am very happy to be here, I have liked Valencia for a long time and I want to give everything for this shirt."

Munir believes Valencia can finish strong enough to qualify for next season's Champions League, adding: "I think we are going to achieve it. I am a striker that likes to score goals.

"I am here to work hard and help the team to do well. I am very happy here, concentrating on the team and our targets."
