Luciano Vietto has revealed that he is "very happy" at Villarreal following an impressive first half to the season.
The 21-year-old joined the Yellow Submarine from Racing Club in the summer and has netted 12 goals in 23 games for the club, including seven in the league.
A number of foreign youngsters have taken time to settle in La Liga, but Vietto has claimed that he feels comfortable in Spain.
"Villarreal are a great club, that take chances on young players, this has allowed me to learn and grow. They were a team that showed a lot of interest in me and I think that's something worth noting," Inside Spanish Football quotes Vietto as saying.
"I want to show my appreciation for their gesture and show how excited I was to come here and that's why I made the decision I did.
"These past 6 months in Spain have very good and very positive. These have been the first few months in my career where I have lived out of my home country and the truth is that I'm very happy at how things have progressed."
Vietto signed a five-year deal with Villarreal in August.
