The fullback spoke to ESPN about the Clasico and his start to life at the club

Barcelona defender Sergino Dest is happy to be playing with and against the best players in the world.

"This is the reason [I signed]," Dest told ESPN in an interview. "You want to play every game against the best opponents and see where you're at right now with your development. I think there's enough room for me to improve, but I am on a good [path] and I like these games."

The full-back has played at left back and later at right back, starting in the Clasico ahead of Sergi Roberto.

“It’s an amazing first month for me, my dream came true, I play for Barcelona now. Sometimes when I look at [my teammates] on the pitch I'm like, 'Wow a couple of years ago I watched you guys on TV' and now I play with the best player in the world [Lionel Messi]. That's amazing,” he added.

"[I know] we lost the Clasico, but for me, it's just starting. Hopefully I can reach wonderful things with this beautiful club and develop myself as best as I can."
