The Catalan giants were linked with a host of strikers, but ended their hunt for a new forward ahead of deadline day.

However, while it seemed that no new player would arrive at the Camp Nou in this window, Palmeiras midfielder Matheus Fernandes has now seemingly revealed he has been signed by the Catalan giants, as Albert Roge of Sport reported.

While it seems Barcelona have signed him before immediately loaning him out to Real Valladolid until the end of the season, both clubs are yet to make an official statement about the player.
