Barcelona striker David Villa shares his delight after making a return from injury in Saturday's friendly against Dinamo Bucharest.

Barcelona striker David Villa has said that he feels like a footballer again after making his comeback from injury at the weekend.

Villa came on as a substitute in Barca's friendly against Dinamo Bucharest on Saturday after nine months out with a fractured fibula.

The 30-year-old forward said: "It's a very happy day, I feel like a footballer again.

"You have to be patient, I have taken a big step but it is very clear that I still have a long way to go.

"The goal is getting back to the highest level, but I do not know when I can reach it. I wish it were sooner, but I insist that I must have patience."

Barcelona begin their La Liga campaign under new coach Tito Vilanova against Real Sociedad on Sunday, August 19.
