"Barcelona will welcome a defender from Colombia this summer"

"Barcelona" reached an agreement with "Palmeiras" in mid-August for the acquisition of 22-year-old center-back Yerry Mina.

It is said that the Catalans will pay 9 million euros for the Colombian national team player. Initially, it was announced that the defender would stay in Brazil to play until the upcoming winter, but he will not join "Barcelona" at that time.

The sports director of "Palmeiras" confirmed that Y. Mina will join "Barcelona" next summer and until then will wear their team's shirt.

Last season, Y. Mina was one of the best defenders in Brazil, playing a significant role in "Palmeiras" winning the national championship.

The defender has already played in over ten matches for the Colombian national team and scored three goals.
