Valencia striker Hugo Duro is delighted with his first months with the club.
Duro left Getafe last summer for VCF.
He told the club's website: "In the short time that I've spent here, I've felt very welcomed by my teammates. Day-to-day life here is wonderful and I have a great time. Besides that, on a professional level coming here is priceless.
"In terms of my form, things have been going pretty well; it's true that the team could have taken better results, and there is a bittersweet feeling that we've done a lot of things well, but should have got more points. We're here to improve and to get better results.
"It was the first time I'd left Madrid. I didn't know what it was going to be like in a new place, away from my parents, friends and family in general. For the moment, I don't have any complaints. My teammates have been very helpful. In terms of the team, this is a leap up for me, because Valencia CF are one of Spain's biggest teams. Having the opportunity to play here, even if it's just for this year, is something that I really appreciate and want to take full advantage of.
"It's like a dream come true. You never think that you'll make it, but you keep coming up through the ranks and realise that it's getting closer. I think that we footballers in general don't value what we have enough. We should probably enjoy it more than we do."
