Brazilian central defender Gabriel Paulista has joined Valencia for five seasons after the Spanish top division football club reached a transfer deal with English Premier League side Arsenal.
Under the terms of the deal, Gabriel will be with the La Liga club until June 30, 2022, and has a buyout clause of 80 million euros ($93.99 million), Valencia said on their website on Friday, reports Efe news agency.
Neither club revealed any financial details about the deal, but the La Liga side reportedly paid a transfer fee of around 12 million euros ($14.11 million).
Gabriel made 64 appearances for Arsenal after joining the English club in January 2015 from another La Liga club, Villarreal.
The 26-year-old Gabriel arrived in Valencia on Thursday and passed medical examinations before signing the contract.
