Arsenal target Victor Valdes is going nowhere

That’s according to Barcelona President: Josep Maria Bartomeu.The Catalan giants believe the long-term goalkeeper will end his career at the Nou Camp. The 31-year-old Spaniard is expected to move on this summer after making a shock announcement earlier on this season.A host of big clubs are after the Spain international. Liverpool are keen to offload off-form Pepe Reina, while Arsenal are desperate for an experienced keeper.Manchester United also expressed their interested in Valdes as a replacement for De Gea. Fortunately, De Gea has hit form at the best possible time, perhaps saving his career with 20-time Premier League Champions.Valdes has been a key figure in Barca’s team for over 10 years. He’s made just under 600 appearances for the La Liga Champions.I think the move would be good for him. After watching him on big occasions this year, he’s starting to look extremely average. I agree with the fact that he’s a fantastic leader and has a wealth of experience, but this season has exposed his unreliability at the most important times.Arsenal would be a good choice. A club that is desperate for some form of experienced leadership out on the pitch. Not to mention, they haven’t had a decent keeper since the Seaman years to be quite honest.
