The Club's medical services confirm that the player will need surgery

Víctor Valdés suffered an ACL tear on 22 minutes after saving a free kick from Augusto. The Club's Medical Services confirm that he will need surgery. The keeper fell awkwardly on his right leg, forcing him to ask to be substituted. He was subbed off two minutes later for Pinto while he was being carted off the pitch of the Camp Nou.

This isn’t Valdés’ first injury this season. The keeper picked up a calf injury during the international friendly in South Africa. He was out for eight matches, the last ones of 2013. His first match after that injury was against Elche at the Camp Nou.


This is sad beyond words.

Thanx Flavia.
So sad to lose the club legend this way. He was having one of his best seasons too and had a good shot at being Spain's no1 for World Cup

Really sad for VV. I can't imagine how emotionally hurt he is right now to end his career at Barca this way and to not play in the WC. DAMN!

[KhaledBarca]

Hopefully he'll renew for at least another year... he doesn't deserve to leave in this way...

Truly sad beyond words. Hope we will carry on and get through without Victor, and wish him a speedy and full recovery.

He deserves a crowd Tifo at the Champions League game vs Atletico.

 

[FCBarca]

Feels like every spring a dark cloud finds it's way over the team, shitty way for Victor's time at the club to end

 

[Zavir]

Sums up our luck as of late, completely shattered he has to end his amazing season this way.
