Barcelona: FC Barcelona have announced that their new signing, Turkish midfielder Arda Turan will be officially presented to the media on Friday.

The former Atletico Madrid player will undergo the usual photo session with the club's crest, and on Friday morning, the Turk will sign his contract before being presented at a press conference, Efe reported on Wednesday.

Turan, 28, is expected to later participate in another photo shoot wearing the Barcelona jersey at the Camp Nou stadium, in the presence of the club's fans.

Barcelona will not be able to take advantage of the summer window due to sanctions imposed by FIFA against the Catalan club for signing minors, preventing it from signing any new players until January 2016.
