Barcelona confirmed that 22-year old Alexis Sanchez is in fact joining the Catalonian club and will be transferred from the Italian Seria A. Udinesse Calcio released the Chilean striker on Thursday.
Barcelona was able to steal the deal away for €26 million, from such teams as Manchester City and Chelsea who had their eyes on Sanchez.
The fact that Barcelona signed a 5 year contract with Alexis Sanchez, shows the club's strong commitment to develop the young striker into a star player and implement his enormous talent.
Considering his out of the ordinary performance at Copa America Argentina 2011, Sanchez should make a strong addition to the Barcelona's attacking game.
