After Barça exercised the clause to re-sign him from Villarreal for 3.5 million euros, the player will return to the club that he left in 2014/15, at first on loan at Sevilla, before later signing for Villarreal.

Suarez, 22, impressed with Villarreal last season and convinced Barça he has a place at Camp Nou. It's planned that he will sign a four-year deal and will have a 50 million euro release clause.

On Wednesday he will have a medical and sign his contract, becoming the first official signing of the summer. He will then be presented to the media.

Barça and Villarreal agreed the deal months ago and closed the final details of the transfer. However, the official announcement has been delayed after talks between the Catalan club and the midfielder's agents stalled.

Both sides have finally reached an agreement, though, after Suarez rejected three major offers from teams in England and Italy.
