Joao Felix admits he's delighted with the way he's been welcomed by Barcelona fans.

Felix signed for Barca on deadline day last month on-loan from Atletico Madrid.

"I feel good and confident," he told Sport. "Physically, too, despite not having had many minutes lately. I'm ready to arrive in Barcelona and start strong. I want to work to help the team.

"I feel comfortable starting from the left wing. I've been playing there for some time now and I think that's where Xavi likes to put me the most.

"The group has welcomed me very well," he added. "The team is young, so I'm very comfortable. There is a very good group that wants to win."

On the fans, he said: "I've always said I wanted to play there and maybe that's why they love me so much."
