Ryunosuke Sato performed his initiation dance as Valencia continued pre-season in Girona, a moment that summed up the buoyant mood in the squad.
According to Superdeporte, the Japanese midfielder chose Gangnam Style, PSY’s global hit, prompting laughter and applause from his new team-mates. Such routines are a familiar rite for arrivals in the dressing room.
The clip came during the opening days at the Royalverd Training Center, where Valencia have started their summer work. It signalled how quickly the new signing is bedding in.
Hugo Duro shared the scene on Instagram, offering a glimpse of the camaraderie inside the group. The video shows Sato playing up to the room as team-mates cheer.
The positive atmosphere comes as the coaching staff, led by Carlos Corberán, oversee the first sessions of pre-season. For Sato, it is an early chance to connect with the squad.
