Pierre Oriola will sign with Barcelona for the upcoming season, as reported by Catalunya Radio.

The Blaugrana have been interested in the Spanish forward for quite some time and are willing to pay the 1 million buy-out to Valencia in order to add him in their roster.

Oriola, 24, finished the Liga Endesa season scoring 7.3 points plus 3.4 rebounds during 14 minutes per game, helping Valencia win its first league title in history. He averaged 8.3 points and 2.7 rebounds in EuroCup where the “Taronja” made it to the Finals.

Barcelona is also moving towards signing Adam Hanga while waiting to hear if Baskonia will match the offer for Shane Larkin.
