The Frenchman has signed a five-year contract at the Nou Camp and has an enormous buyout clause of £840million.
The Catalan club dramatically beat Chelsea to the signature of Kounde this week.
The Blues were the front-runners to sign the defender, but Barca swooped in at the eleventh hour to make the Frenchman their fifth addition of the summer.
