FC Barcelona have made another addition to their squad for the upcoming season, having signed Brazilian forward Keirrison from Palmeiras.
The Catalans reportedly pay up to 16 million Euros for the player, who is likely to be loaned out to another team for one year in order to gain more experience.
The 20-year-old began his career at Coritiba in 2006 but joined Sao Paulo-based Palmeiras at the start of this year. In seven games played with the Brazilian giants, Keirrison scored five goals.
The striker is to sign a contract for the coming five seasons.
