The Catalan club announced on Monday the signing of midfielder Denis Suárez, who will join the Blaugrana on a four-year contract with a club option for a fifth season. To complete Suárez's transfer, Barça exercised a buy-back clause and paid €3.25 million to Denis' former club, Villarreal.
Denis Suárez joined Barça B from Manchester City back in 2013. When the Catalans signed Ivan Rakitic from Sevilla, Suárez went to the Sevillistas as part of the deal, and played for one season with Unai Emery before being sold to Villarreal last summer.
