Crystal Palace has signed Spain under-20 captain Jose Campana from Sevilla for an undisclosed fee.
The 20-year-old midfielder signed a four-year deal at newly-promoted Palace.
Campana says ''it was a dream to play in England, especially in the Premier League. I hope to help the team stay in the league and then move forward.''
Campana has made 20 league appearances for Sevilla and captained Spain's team to the Under-20 World Cup quarterfinals this month.
