Transfer Deadline: Barcelona confirm Jesus deal, Palace sign Ahanor after Chelsea agreement

Barcelona have confirmed the signing of Gabriel Jesus from Arsenal.

Sky Sports News reports that the LaLiga side will pay £8.6m to sign the Brazil forward.

This deal is separate from Barcelona’s pursuit of Atletico Madrid striker Julian Alvarez.

Also, Crystal Palace have signed defender Honest Ahanor on loan from Atalanta.

The 18-year-old is joining Chelsea next summer for £40m.

The left-footed centre-back came through Genoa’s youth system and made his senior debut in Serie A as a 16-year-old.

After playing six times for Genoa, Ahanor moved to Atalanta, where he has since played 35 times in all competitions – including nine times in the Champions League.
