Southampton midfielder Oriol Romeu says "it is great to be back" for his second spell at the club.
The 34-year-old returns to the south coast side after three years of playing in Spain for Barcelona and Girona.
Romeu made 256 appearances across seven years for Saints during which the club was always in the Premier League.
"It's great to be back and I'm happy to be around again," Romeu told BBC Radio Solent.
"The welcome couldn't be any better probably and I'm pleased to be back and willing to help as soon as possible.
