Munir El Haddadi to join Valencia on loan from Barcelona

Barcelona announce that Munir El Haddadi will spend the upcoming campaign on loan at Valencia, with the option to make the switch permanent.

Barcelona have confirmed that Munir El Haddadi will spend the 2016-17 campaign on loan at Valencia.

The 20-year-old joined the Barca youth team in 2011, going on to make his debut for the first team under Luis Enrique in 2014, when he scored against Elche.

The presence of Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Neymar saw opportunities limited for the youngster, but he still managed to make 43 first-team appearances for Barca, scoring 10 goals.

Munir also earned a call-up to the Spain squad during his breakthrough season, but will now spend the upcoming campaign on loan with Los Che.

Valencia have the option to buy the forward for €12m (£10.2m) at the end of the loan, although Barca would earn a percentage of the next transfer should he leave Camp Nou.

Munir's switch to the Mestalla comes on the same day as Paco Alcacer moved in the opposition direction on a five-year deal.
