BARCELONA (Reuters) - Espanyol have signed Chinese striker Wu Lei from Shanghai SIPG FC, the Spanish club said on Monday.

Spanish media reported that Wu, the Chinese Super League's top scorer with 27 goals this season, arrived in Barcelona with a shoulder injury sustained at the Asian Cup, which could keep him out for three months.
