Victor Valdes reiterates desire to leave Barcelona

Barcelona goalkeeper Victor Valdes has once more insisted that he will leave the Spanish champions at the end of next season.

The 31-year-old, whose current deal runs out in June 2014, is expected to move to the Premier League when he departs Barcelona.

"I consider that my cycle as a Barcelona player will come to an end when my contract expires in 2014," Valdes told reporters at a press conference.

"I understand that with more than 12 months' warning there should be sufficient time to find the best solution for the club and for the player, so that Barca keep on winning and so do I."

Barcelona have been linked with a move for Liverpool goalkeeper Pepe Reina in recent weeks.
