The main goalkeeper of the Spanish champions "Barcelona" suffered a serious knee injury in the 30th "Primera" league match at home against Vigo "Celta" at the beginning of the game. After lying on the grass for a few minutes, the 32-year-old goalkeeper was carried off the field on a stretcher - it was officially confirmed that the footballer's knee ligaments were torn. V. Valdes will need surgery and will be unable to play for at least 6 months. This means that the Catalan will not play in the World Cup, and it was probably his last game for "Barcelona". V. Valdes has already officially announced that after this season, when his contract with the team expires, he will go elsewhere. He has been playing for "Barcelona" since 2002, when he was 20 years old. Recently, V. Valdes has demonstrated excellent athletic form and was in contention for a spot in the Spanish national team for the World Cup. Usually, the first choice goalkeeper for "La Roja" is Iker Casillas from Madrid's "Real", but this season the latter has played little, so V. Valdes could have been the first choice. In the "Barcelona" team, which still has the possibility to win the "Primera" and has reached the quarterfinals of the UEFA Champions League, the only remaining constant first team goalkeeper is the 38-year-old Jose Pinto. In the main "Barcelona" team and the reserve team, V. Valdes has played 611 matches. Six times he won the "Primera", twice - the Spanish Cup, 6 times - the Super Cup, 3 times - the Champions League, and once each with the national team became a world and European champion. In his personal trophy collection, V. Valdes has five Ricardo Zamora trophies, awarded to the best goalkeeper in the "Primera" league.
