Barcelona have completed signing of Turkish International, Arda Turan, on a five-year contract from Atlético Madrid for an initial fee of £24.1m (€34m).

Turan 28 was reportedly the target of the Premier League champions, Chelsea, but decided to stay in Spain by swapping Atletico Madrid for the Catalan giants Barcelona.

According to a statement from Barcelona, there is an agreement which stipulates that the Turkish captain will not be able to play an official game for Barcelona until January 2016 due to a transfer ban imposed by Fifa for breaching rules over the signings of underage players.

Turan deal is also coming in the midst of Barcelona presidential election campaign presided over by a special commission, which had to approve the transfer of the former Atlectico Madrid enforcer. The commission has an unusual clause in place which states that the winner of the election which is billed for July 18 has the option of selling Turan back to Atlético less 10% of the fixed fee within two days.

Turan joined Atlectico Madrid in 2011 for a reported fee of €12 million and went on to make 127 appearances helping the team to the 2013/2014 La Liga Title.
