"Fernando will cause lots of problems for my fellow goalkeepers next season. He's a great player and I'm sure the Liverpool fans are going to love him," said the Liverpool goalkeeper.
"The first year in a foreign country is always difficult but myself and all the other lads will be there for him every inch of the way to help him settle.
"Scoring goals will also help him settle and I can foresee no problems with him. He's a great lad. He's learning English early and has got the right mentality to succeed.
"I've spoken to him about a lot of things since he signed and I know he's ready for the challenge."
