Amsterdam's "Ajax" club's shining midfielder Frenkie de Jong is delighted - his dream of playing in the same team as the legendary Lionel Messi has come true.

Arriving in Barcelona, the young Dutchman was full of optimism:

"I am very happy to finally be here. I have dreamed of playing for Barcelona since childhood and I have finally made it to this team.

I can't wait to step on the grass of the Camp Nou stadium and I am thrilled that my teammate will be L. Messi - a footballer I have always followed.

From now on, I will play together with my idol," - said F. de Jong.
