Barcelona coach Ernesto Valverde insists the forward is exactly the kind of threat his side are lacking following the departure of Neymar.
'He's a player who guarantees an attacking threat, which is something we had lost and we badly need,' Valverde said.
'He can play on either wing or through the middle, he gets forward a lot and is very technical. We expect a lot from him and we're very excited about him.'
