        The one-time wonder kid previously played for São Paulo where he scored 24 goals and created 47 in 214 games for the Brazilian side. Before signing for São Paulo, the 26 year old played alongside Neymar at Santos from 2008 to 2012, and was sold to São Paulo after disagreements with the board at Santos.

The Spanish club confirmed on twitter that the midfielder has signed a 5-year contract with them after passing a medical on Wednesday.

Prior to his departure from São Paulo where he won the Copa Sudamericana, Ganso said: São Paulo changed my life. A lot of people used to say that I was an ex-football player, but thanks to this club, I could play my football with joy. I don't even know what to say, just have to thank you. I have no doubt that I will return one day."
