If the deal has already been signed indeed, I really don't get it why Barca haven't announced it yet (similarly as Bayern did with Lewandowski)
It was always rumoured that they'd wait to announce the deal until Valdes announced his new club (which I find absolute BS btw, what's the connection between both cases?), but what are they going to do now, wait until Valdes' recovery in October to announce it?
I'm guessing it has to do with the fact that they (as most clubs do these days) get everything sorted with the player before talking to the club which is against the rules.
Btw, he's only got 12 months left on his contracta nd if we are t believe the rumors we'd be paying 12m for him, he's not cheap.
