Barça agree terms with Claudio Bravo

The Chilean goalkeeper is keen to join the Catalan giants, according to today's edition of Basque newspaper 'El Diario Vasco A report in today's edition of 'El Diario Vasco' claims that Barcelona have agreed personal terms with Real Sociedad goalkeeper Claudio Bravo and will now set about negotiating with the Basque club. Bravo's contract in San Sebastián expires in June 2017 and includes a negotiable 30 million release clause. The newspaper alleges that the 'Azulgranas' board have swayed Bravo by assuring him that he would start next season on equal footing with recent signing Marc-André ter Stegen and would be given a chance to fight for the no. 1 spot. The 31-year-old shotstopper, who captains the Chilean national team, has never hidden his desire to join a big club and this could be a golden opportunity, as the departures of Víctor Valdés and José Manuel Pinto have left Barcelona light in the goalkeeping department.
