A Colombian centre-back is heading to Spain.

On Friday, Valencia CF reached an agreement with Internazionale for Jeison Murillo, who will join Los Che on a two-season loan with obligatory purchase. The agreement is valued at €13 million, according to the Guardian's Fabrizio Romano.

Valencia reached an agreement with Arsenal for Gabriel Paulista's transfer on the same day.

Murillo, who joined Inter from Granada CF in 2015, made 27 appearances in Serie A last season as the Nerazzurri missed out on the Champions League for the sixth time in a row. The South American defender is dominant in the air, boasts pace, comfortable when it comes to tackles, and is competent with both feet.
