Official: J. Cillessen will guard the gates of "Barcelona"

It's no secret that 27-year-old Jasper Cillessen will join "Barcelona" - officially confirmed.

Netherlands national team goalkeeper, who defended the gates of Amsterdam "Ajax" yesterday for the last time, confirmed that he is moving to "Barcelona". The footballer will sign a five-year contract with the Catalans, and the transfer fee will be 13 million euros with possible additional 2 million bonuses.

It is not officially confirmed yet, but it is known that Claudio Bravo, who has been playing for "Barca" for the last two years, will sign a contract with "Manchester City."

J. Cillessen was bought specifically to replace the position of the captain of the Chilean national team. It is expected that Marc-Andre ter Stegen will now take on the role of the main goalkeeper, while J. Cillessen will have to be satisfied with playing in the Spanish Cup for the time being.
