Goncalo Guedes has completed his permanent move to Valencia from Paris Saint-Germain and signed a six-year deal. Valencia announced on Monday that it had reached an agreement with PSG for the talented winger, and he, finally, signed his contract – which contains a €300million release clause – on Thursday.

Guedes played for Valencia on loan last season and impressed, particularly, in the first half of the campaign, when the club threatened to mount a title challenge.

Neither Valencia, nor Guedes were able to fully maintain such form for the whole season, but the Portugal international's displays restored the glowing reputation he earned at Benfica and helped Los Che secure a return to the Champions League, where it will face Juventus, Manchester United and Young Boys in the group stage.

The 21-year-old will begin training with his teammates again on Friday and will attend a news conference, later, that day. According to reports, Guedes could eventually cost Valencia more than €50million.
