Barcelona agree to sign Andre Gomes

Barcelona have confirmed that they have reached an agreement with Valencia to sign midfielder Andre Gomes.

The 22-year-old had been linked with a number of Europe's top clubs following his performances for Portugal on their way to Euro 2016 glory, with Juventus and Chelsea both understood to have had big-money bids rejected.

However, Barcelona have now confirmed that he will join the Spanish champions for next season, signing his contract and being officially presented as a Barca player next week.

The deal bringing Gomes to Camp Nou is thought to be worth around €50m (£41.7m).
