Valencia sign keeper Mathew Ryan

Valencia announce the signing of Australian goalkeeper Mathew Ryan on a six-year contract from Club Brugge.

Valencia have announced the signing of Australian goalkeeper Mathew Ryan on a six-year deal from Club Brugge.

Los Che had been on the lookout for a new stopper this summer following the long-term injury to number one Diego Alves, who will miss a large chunk of next season.

Ryan landed in Spain on Monday to discuss terms, and the deal has now been completed for a figure believed to be in the region of £5m.

"Valencia Football Club have reached an agreement with Belgian side Club Brugge KV to sign Australian international goalkeeper Mathew Ryan on a six-year deal," read a statement on the club's official website.

The 23-year-old, who moved to Brugge from Central Coast Mariners in 2013, represented Australia at the 2014 World Cup.

Ryan had reportedly been a long-term target for Liverpool.
