The 32-year-old Portugal defender returns to Catalonia on a permanent basis for the first time, after years spent moving from one loan to the next, and he already has 23 appearances there in a title-winning La Liga season.

For Barcelona, this is not simply another name added to the list: it is the return of a loyal figure ready to give everything for the club.
