FC Barcelona and Real Sociedad have reached an agreement for the transfer of goalkeeper Claudio Bravo

Claudio Bravo will sign a contract with FC Barcelona for the next four seasons.

Experience and calmness between the posts

Claudio Bravo, 31, is coming to Barça after eight seasons playing for Real Sociedad, and also captaining the Chilean national team. The new keeper came through the Colo-Colo youth system, making his first team debut in the First Division, at 19 years old, in 2002. He played for the Chilean team until 2006, when he signed for the Basque outfit. In San Sebastian he has become a natural leader after eight seasons: he is the second non-national with most matches played, and became the third goalkeeper in the history of the club playing most matches in a Real Sociedad shirt.

The goalkeeper, who is currently contesting the World Cup in Brazil as team captain of Chile, will come to the Camp Nou along with the other new keeper, Marc-Andre ter Stegen. At 1.85 metres tall, Claudio Bravo is noted for his calmness between the posts, his leadership skills, and lots of agility. Since 2008 he has been the captain of the Chilean national team, and at Real Sociedad he became one of the natural leaders of a team that in recent years have done really well in La Liga.

What do you guys think? Great GK, but I prefer ter Stegen. Nice deal nevertheless.

I prefer Ter Stegen aswell!
I do think the backup is great though.Shows that Barca know goalkeepers let them down last year.
Great thinking by the people in charge.

I hate this deal for the sole reason that I'm a Real Madrid fan. Jokes aside, I think Barcelona got a great deal here for a great keeper. I've only seen a few games of his at club level, but I enjoyed watching his performance for his country at this WC. Great keeper.

I saw him in this world cup and he looks like a good goal keeper even though he can't replace the spaces left by Victor Valdes.
