The Catalan club released a statement on Monday to announce that the former Athletic Club boss will take over from at Camp Nou this summer

Barcelona have confirmed that Ernesto Valverde will be their new coach for the 2017-18 season.

The 53-year-old stepped down after four seasons in a second spell at Athletic Club last week and was widely expected to take over from Luis Enrique this summer.

Barca had promised an announcement after the Copa del Rey final and a statement on Monday confirmed Valverde as the new coach on a two-year deal.

"I have spoken personally with Ernesto Valverde and I told him of our decision," said club president Josep Maria Bartomeu.

"He said he is very excited and very happy, that it's a great challenge to come in as head coach of Barca. 

"There is time to talk about why we chose him. We know he has ability, his knowledge and his experience. 

"He loves youth football and he has a special style, similar to what we do at Barca. He has philosophy similar to Barca's and trains the way we like to train."

Luis Enrique's three-year tenure yielded nine trophies, including a third successive Copa as Barca beat Alaves 3-1 at the Vicente Calderon on Saturday night.
