Barcelona have agreed a deal to sign Alexis Sanchez from Udinese for a fee of €26 million ($37 million). The deal will be finalized once the winger passes a medical on Monday. Sanchez was voted the best player in Serie A last year, scoring 12 goals in 31 appearances.
Sanchez is expected to sign a five-year contract with the La Liga Champions.
“He’s very young,” Coach Pep Guardiola said on the club’s Web site. “He can play in all three attacking positions, he shows intense defensive skills, he’s direct and from what I’ve been told, he’s a very nice kid.”
