Barcelona To Present Chygrynskiy On Monday
The Shakhtar stalwart will soon complete his switch to the Blaugrana...
Dmytro Chygrynskiy is expected to be presented as a Barcelona player on Monday, provided he passes his medical.
Having just played against his future side for Shakhtar Donetsk in the UEFA Super Cup, Chygrynskiy is set to fly in to Barcelona on Sunday.
According to Marca, pending completion of a medical, he will sign a five year contract, and the Blaugrana will pay a fee of around €25 million.
The Ukrainian defender will then be presented at 12:15 p.m.
Later that night, Barcelona will open their league campaign against Sporting Gijon, but Chygrynskiy will take no part in that game. His first appearance could come against Getafe, after the international break.
