Paco Alcacer is confident that he will find his shooting boots soon after failing to score in his first four appearances for Barcelona.

Barcelona forward Paco Alcacer has claimed that it is only a matter of time before he finds his stride in front of goal.

The 23-year-old joined the Catalan giants from Valencia for a reported £25m fee, but he has failed to score in his first four appearances.

With the attacking threat of Luis Suarez, Lionel Messi and Neymar, Alcacer believes that it is harder for him to find the breakthrough.

"It's clear that it is complicated to arrive to a top club like Barcelona with unique players," Alacer told Mundo Deportivo. "All the strikers depend on goals but if I play for Barcelona it is because this club saw something to sign me.

"I will score goals. Last year I also had problems to score my first goal but when I score the first, I will score more."

Alcacer scored 15 goals in all competitions last season.
