New Barcelona defender Jeremy Mathieu expresses his delight after joining the club from Valencia.

Jeremy Mathieu has described Barcelona as the "best club in the world" following his move from Valencia.

The 30-year-old French defender arrived at the Camp Nou on Wednesday, signing a four-year deal for nearly £16m.

Mathieu will be officially presented as a Barcelona player on Thursday.

"The club know how I play and I'm just coming to do my very best," he told Barca's official website. "Barca is the best club in the world, and coming here is a great opportunity for me."

Mathieu leaves Valencia after spending the past four years at the Mestalla Stadium.
