Paris Saint-Germain have announced a deal to sign Pablo Sarabia from Sevilla for a reported €20m fee.
Sarabia had a measly €18m release clause in his Sevilla contract but PSG have agreed to pay more than that to secure his signature ahead of their European rivals.
Sevilla have reluctantly lost one of their best players but there was no indication Sarabia wanted to renew his contract, which only had one year left to run.

The 27-year-old was heavily linked with a move to Real Madrid last season but Zinedine Zidane is now targetting high profile names to bolster his midfield options.
Sarabia, who has penned a five-year deal until the summer of 2024, is expected to be joined at PSG by former Manchester United midfielder Ander Herrera on a free transfer.
Along with Lionel Messi, Sarabia was one of just two players to register double figures for goals (12) and assists (13) in LaLiga last season.
