Swansea have signed Espanyol reserve striker Guillem Bauza Mayol - better known as Bussy - on a one-year deal. The 22-year-old will join up with the squad in time for pre-season training.
Bussy has represented his country at Under-16, Under-17 and Under-20 levels, playing alongside Fernando Torres in the U20 World Cup in Trinidad & Tobago.
Swansea's Spanish manager Roberto Martinez, who promised more recruits in the weeks to come, has watched the striker several times in recent weeks.

Bussy, a fluent English speaker, has already visited the Liberty Stadium to see the facilities on offer at Swansea.
"He is excited about joining Swansea City, and we are excited about having him in our squad," Martinez told the club's website.
"He has a fantastic pedigree at all levels in Spain, especially playing in the U20 World Cup, and is a great prospect.
"He's a different striker to the ones we've got. He's tall, good in the air and a good link man.
"He plays deeper than an out-and-out striker and creates a lot of chances for people. In fact, his assist record is fantastic."
