Real Madrid has unveiled their new player Danilo Luis Da Silva at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium.

Danilo left Porto this summer to join Real Madrid and sign a six-year contract with the Spanish La Liga powerhouse. The Brazilian international, 23, won two Liga titles since arriving in Portugal from Brazil's Santos FC in 2011, reports Xinhua.

During his presentation Danilo on Thursday confessed he had the dream of playing for Real Madrid since he was a child.

"Today, a dream comes true", he said.

"It is without doubt one of the happiest days of my life."

Danilo showed his commitment to the team saying he would "give it my all on the pitch in each and every game".

Meanwhile, Atletico Madrid officially presented the Argentinean Luciano Vietto at Majadahonda's Sports City after signing a contract on Wednesday for six seasons.

The first official Atletico signing of the summer was presented by Chairman Enrique Cerezo who said that the player "comes to the team to strengthen it and increase the competitiveness in the forward line".

Vietto spoke about Diego Simeone, the Atletico coach, who he knows from his time at Racing de Avellaneda.

"It is true that he knows me because he made me to debut in Argentina", he said, adding that he "was eager to come and meet him again".

On the other hand, Arda Turan arrived in FC Barcelona on Thursday for the photo session outside the club offices. He will be presented on Friday at the Camp Nou stadium after signing his contract that morning.

He said "it is very important for my career and for my country that I have signed for FC Barcelona".
