BARCELONA - France international Lucas Digne hailed the start of a "big adventure" at his unveiling as Barcelona's latest signing on Thursday. Digne, sporting bandages on his face after nose surgery, added: "I think this is the perfect club to evolve and to stay for a long time." Digne's arrival comes on the same week as another French defender, Samuel Umtiti, joined The Catalans from Lyon in a deal worth 25 million euros ($27.7 million). Digne was part of Didier Deschamps' 23-strong France squad for Euro 2016. But he didn't play a single minute, with the experienced Patrice Evra preferred in the Les Bleus' starting XI.
