A former France youth international, Gomes has been with City for the past three years after joining from Paris-Saint Germain.

On joining the club, Gomes said in an official statement: "I'm excited because I want to play men's football and I think, for me, it's a good place to play and get experience.

"I know the Championship is a good place in England and I'm excited to start playing with the guys here.

"I'll try to do my best to help the team move forward, maybe more than last season and ready to help the team go higher in the table."

Barnsley FC co-chairman Paul Conway said: "It was important for the club to get its first four signings completed early, allowing us time to complement the squad later in the window.

"Now, we are pleased to welcome Claudio to Barnsley. Having associations with clubs like PSG and Manchester City, Claudio's football education is strong and it's clear that he has a bright future ahead of him.

"We look forward to integrating Claudio into the first team and providing Markus with another quality option."
