'Wow! I play for Barcelona!' - Dest still coming to grips with move to Camp Nou

Sergino Dest admitted that he's still coming to grips with being a Barcelona player, adding that he still feels "emotional" about recently making his club debut.

The U.S. men's national team fullback joined Barca in a €21 million (£19m/$25m) move from Ajax, making the move to La Liga after just one season of consistent soccer in the Eredivisie.

He made his Barcelona debut on October 4, coming on as a 75th-minute substitute for Jordi Alba in a 1–1 draw against Sevilla to become the first American to feature in an official match for the Catalan club.
