Benfica have agreed a €1.5million deal with Barcelona to sign full-back Alejandro Grimaldo.
The Liga champions announced the news on Tuesday, citing a clause in the agreement that sees Barca retain a sell-on percentage.
Grimaldo, 20, has spent seven years at Camp Nou without making a first-team appearance, coming through the Catalan giants' famous La Masia academy.
He captains the club's B team, but endured a prolonged spell on the sidelines when he tore cruciate ligaments in February 2013.

Barca's statement did not include a completion date for the transfer.
