Barelona sells striker Pau Victor to Sporting Braga

MADRID, July 25 (Xinhua) -- FC Barcelona has sold striker Pau Victor to Portuguese side Sporting Braga for a fee of around 12 million euros (13.2 million US dollars).

Both clubs confirmed the move on Friday evening after Victor was left out of the squad for Barcelona's tour of Japan and South Korea, which took off from the city earlier in the day.

The 23-year-old made 29 first team appearances for Barcelona last season, scoring two goals. However, most of those came from the substitutes' bench, with him totaling fewer than 400 minutes.

The previous season saw him impress with 20 goals for the Barcelona B-team on loan from Girona, which prompted Barca to make the move permanent.

He has signed a five-year contract for Braga with a release clause of 50 million euros (55 million US dollars).
