Paco Alcacer: Playing with Messi, Suarez and Neymar is a privilege

Paco Alcacer is officially Barcelona's sixth summer signing and joins the Blaugrana on a five-year contract from Valencia.

After passing his medical, the Spain international spoke to Barça TV about his move to the Camp Nou.

"I'm happy to be here with this great club," he said. "A striker lives on hope and getting lucky, so I hope I can contribute my bit and achieve something nice at the club."

The new Barça striker also recognises the illusion surrounding his 30 million euros transfer as he joins the likes of Spanish compatriots Gerard Pique, Andres Iniesta and Sergio Busquets as well as the feared "MSN" trio in his attacking position.

"It will be easier [to adapt] as I know some team-mates already," Alcacer concluded.

"[Lionel] Messi, [Luis] Suarez and Neymar are the three best players in the world - playing with them is a privilege."
