LaLiga side Villarreal have completed the signing of Ben Brereton Díaz from Championship outfit Blackburn Rovers.

The 24-year-old had been heavily linked with a move to Spanish football after a scoring spree with the Lancashire side gained him international attention.

That included being capped for Chile, who he qualifies for through his mother, and becoming an instant fan favourite with La Roja.

Brereton Díaz has penned a four-year deal with the Yellow Submarine.

He netted 16 goals and provided four assists during his spell at Ewood Park, while also netting seven times in 20 caps for Chile.
