Barcelona sign Andre Gomes from rival Valencia

Barcelona has signed Portugal midfielder Andre Gomes after securing his transfer from rival Spanish club Valencia, the Associated Press reports.

The Liga champions say that Gomes will sign a five-year contract.

A skilled playmaker, Gomes helped Portugal win the European Championship earlier this month.

Barcelona did not reveal the financial details of the transfer.

The 22-year-old Gomes played for Valencia for the past two seasons after a move from Benfica, where he won the Portuguese league and cup.

He is the Barcelona's fourth summer signing, following the arrivals of Denis Suarez, Samuel Umtiti and Lucas Digne.
