Former Barcelona goalkeeper Victor Valdes is reportedly to begin a trial at Liverpool ahead of a proposed free transfer move.
The Sunday Express claim Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers is “desperate” to sign the experienced Spanish stopper.
Valdes’ agent was, according to The Daily Mail, at Anfield on Saturday to witness the nervy 2-1 win over West Brom.
The 32-year-old, six times La Liga and three times Champions League winner, is available on a free transfer after leaving Barcelona when his contract expired in the summer. That means he is free to join The Reds any time – but will need to prove his fitness first after suffering an ACL injury back in March.
Valdes would provide much needed competition for under pressure Simon Mignolet, while also adding vital experience – especially in Europe – to Rodgers’ youthful squad.
Comfortable with the ball at his feet in particular, the free transfer signing of Valdes would appear to be quite a coup for the club and you can see why Rodgers would be so keen to sign him.
What do you think of Valdes’ potential arrival? Let us know in the comments below.
