Barcelona on Wednesday morning declared openly the signing of Inigo Martinez.

Martinez, 32, joined Barcelona on a two-year-deal from Athletic Bilbao.

Barcelona revealed this in a statement via its website.

“An agreement has been reached between FC Barcelona and Íñigo Martínez for the player to join the Club after his contract with Athletic Club ended,” Barcelona’s statement read in part.

“The player is set to sign a two-year deal that ends on June 30, 2025, with the release clause set at 400 million euro.”

Martinez joined Athletic Bilbao in 2018 from Real Sociedad.
