After months of negotiations, Victor Valdes has
signed a new long-term contract at Barcelona.
The Catalan goalkeeper will now remain with the Primera Liga
giants until at least 2014.
Speculation had circulated that the 27-year-old could be on the
move during the summer transfer window as Barca refused to meet his
demands.
However, a compromise has now been reached, with reports
suggesting Valdes has seen his salary doubled.
Valdes played an integral role for Pep Guardiola's side last
season as they claimed league, UEFA Champions League and Copa del
Rey crowns.
He has made over 200 appearances for the club since making his
first-team debut in 2002 and was awarded the Zamora (top
goalkeeper) award for his performances during the 2008/09
campaign.
