Yerry Mina already winning over Barcelona teammates

Although he is yet to make an official debut for Barcelona, Yerry Mina has already left a positive impression inside the Catalans' dressing room.
The defender's humility and humble attitude has smoothed his way into the Blaugrana entity and he has already been described as a cheerful and pleasant individual.
His teammates have started becoming fond of his personality and Mina's South American colleagues have been trying to integrate him in the squad.
The Colombian centre back is eager to absorb any kind of advice from superstars such as Luis Suarez and Lionel Messi, while Paulinho and fellow January signing Philippe Coutinho provide him with advice to assist his efforts to settle into European football.
Denis Suarez shares his knowledge on how to operate in the 'Barcelona way' with the newcomer, who works hard and has already left a positive impression on the team's coaching staff.
Those who know him well emphasise his professionalism and describe him as a footballer who is focused on training and take cares of his personal life off the field.
At the moment, Mina stays in one of the most luxurious hotels in the city, waiting to find a house to settle down permanently.
What he also awaits, is the chance to prove himself as a football player - an opportunity he might be given against Valencia in the return leg of the Copa del Rey semi-finals on Thursday.
