MADRID, July 23 (Xinhua) -- Barcelona announced the signing of Brazilian striker Keirrison this Thursday.
The 20-year-old has agreed a five-year deal after Barcelona agreed a 14 million euros deal with his former club Palmeiras, for whom he scored 26 goals last season.
However, despite Keirrison's goals and his price tag, Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola said on the club website that he would not be playing for the first team this season.
"He is very young and he has got some very good numbers and it very hard to find players who score goals."
"In principal our idea is for us to loan him out and we are not counting on his for this season," said the Barcelona coach.
Meanwhile the club is close to agreeing a deal to sign Inter Milan striker Zlatan Ibrahimovich.
