Aston Villa have confirmed the signing of Brazilian winger Alysson from Gremio.

In December, BBC Sport reported Villa had reached an agreement to buy the 19-year-old subject to a medical, with the deal initially worth £8.7m plus a further £1.8m in performance-related add-ons.

Villa add Alysson - a left-footed right winger who scored two goals and provided five assists in 43 appearances this year - to an attack featuring Ollie Watkins, Morgan Rogers, Evann Guessand, Jadon Sancho, Donyell Malen and Harvey Elliott.
