Barcelona sign Swiss prospect Jeremy Guillemenot in youth deal

Barcelona and the Swiss club Servette have reached a year-long deal that sends Swiss youth prospect Jeremy Guillemenot to the Blaugrana club as part of a new youth football cooperation.

The Swiss forward will join Barcelona's under-19 team after he completes training with Barca B, the club said in a statement.

"The agreement is a demonstration of the good level of understanding between the two European clubs," the statement said.

The 18-year-old played in the UEFA European under-17 Championship for his country in 2014 and helped Servette advance to the second round of the UEFA Youth League last season.
