The 22-year-old forward is due to sign a five-year contract and undergo a medical on Monday. The deal involves Barcelona paying £22.9M up front, with the potential of up to £10.1m being paid to the Serie A side in bonuses.
The attacker, who will become Barcelona's first ever Chilean player, had been given permission to leave his national squad's preparation for the Copa America in anticipation of the transfer being finalised late last month, but the two sides were unable to reach an agreement and the move was therefore put on hold until the conclusion of the tournament.
Barcelona had hoped to negotiate a player plus cash deal for Sanchez, but both Bojan Krkic and Jeffren Suarez rejected moves to the Serie A side.
