Levante defender Issam El Adoua believes that his teammate Ruben Garcia is the most talented player in Spain's top flight.

The Moroccan, who joined the La Liga outfit this summer, has also revealed that he is "adapting better" to the rigours of the division.

"I like very many players in the Spanish League, but the one I have liked the most so far is a Levante player - I like Ruben a lot," El Adoua told reporters at a press conference.

"In the first pre-season game it was hard for me. I did not understand the tactics, but little by little I am adapting better. My preferred position? My goal is to play for the team, not for myself.

"But if I have to choose, I prefer to play at centre-back. I'm calmer, I play not to concede goals and can stay focused for the 90 minutes."

Levante currently sit ninth in La Liga.
