FA Cup-holders Palace sign Spain winger Pino
Crystal Palace have signed Spain winger Yeremy Pino from Villarreal, the English FA Cup-holders announced Friday.
The 22-year-old has signed a five-year contract, and will be available for Sunday's Premier League fixture at Aston Villa.
No fee was disclosed but British media reports estimated the deal taking Pino to south London could be worth up to £26 million ($35 million).
Pino, who joined a day after Palace booked a spot in the league phase of the European Conference League, said: "I'm very happy to be here. It is a dream of mine to come to the Premier League, to a historic club like Crystal Palace, and I hope that I can help the team."
Pino had a £69 million release clause, but with less than two years left to run on his contract, Spanish club Villarreal decided to accept Palace's offer.
"It's fantastic news that Yeremy -- an exciting young talent, with already such an impressive record in domestic, European and international football -- has chosen us as the next step in his career," said Palace chairman Steve Parish.
"With an exciting season ahead for the club, competing on multiple fronts, he is a player whose talents Palace fans will particularly appreciate -- and I look forward to seeing him step out at Selhurst Park."
Pino, who came through Las Palmas' youth set-up, made 133 appearances for Villarreal after his debut in 2020.
He scored four goals in 34 league games last season to help the side finish fifth and qualify for the Champions League.
Pino also featured as the La Liga club defeated Manchester United on penalties in the 2021 Europa League final.
Pino has also scored three goals in 15 matches for Spain.
His arrival at Palace follows England forward Eberechi Eze's £60 million move from Palace to Arsenal last week.
Pino is just the Eagles' third signing of the summer window, after goalkeeper Walter Benitez's arrival from PSV Eindhoven on a free transfer and defender Borna's Sosa's £3 million move from Ajax.
