The 20-year-old joins from Barcelona after a successful loan spell at Real Betis, becoming Palace's first summer signing.

Chadi Riad, 20, signed a five-year contract with Crystal Palace after an impressive season on loan at Real Betis.
Riad is Palace's first signing under new manager Oliver Glasner, who took over in February.
