West Brom have completed the signing of Borja Valero from Real Mallorca for a club record £4.7million.
The 23-year-old midfielder has signed a four-year contract after passing a medical.
Spaniard Valero is the Baggies' ninth signing of the summer, taking their close-season spending past £20million.
Manager Tony Mowbray said: 'I'm delighted to welcome Borja to the club.
'From a footballing point of view he possesses many of the attributes I like in a player.'
Mowbray said he believed Borja may need a little time to adjust to the Premier League, and that despite a record fee was not guaranteed a place in the team.
But he added: 'Borja can link up the play from back to front and he will enhance the excellent midfield options we already possess.'
