DONE DEAL: Robert Navarro leaves Barcelona for Monaco

AS Monaco have completed the signing of Barcelona striker Robert Navarro.

Navarro, considered by many one of the best players in Barcelona's academy, signs a three year deal with the Ligue 1 club with the option to extend by an additional two years.

The 16 year-old moves to Monaco after rejecting a pro contract offer at Barca.

"AS Monaco are a great club and they heavily rely on coaching and giving young players the chance to express themselves at the highest level," Robert said. "My goal is to work hard to move forward and take new steps."
