Barcelona starlet Alen Halilovic has declared his happiness at the way his stint in Catalonia is turning out and has said that the atmosphere at the Camp Nou feels like one big family.

Halilovic joined the Catalan giants at the start of the current season from Croatian outfit Dinamo Zagreb and has been a regular fixture in the Barcelona B side, who are plying their trade in the second division of Spanish football.




In his first season in Catalonia, the Croat has made 19 league appearances for the Barcelona B side. He has scored three goals and assisted one more, although the team are fighting desperately to stave off relegation, currently lying second from bottom.

The 18-year-old, billed to be a star for the future, made his full Barcelona debut earlier this season when Luis Enrique brought the youngster on for Adama Traore in the 62nd minute of their Copa del Rey tie against Elche.
 


And Halilovic has expressed his delight over the way his tenure at the Catalan giants has gone so far, not just professionally, but also the way the club treat their players.
