Since the departure of Pep Guardiola, long time Barcelona keeper Victor Valdes has been rumored to be on his way out of the Camp Nou and Monaco seems to be the destination for the 31-year-old.
It is rumored Valdes chose not to renew his contract with the Catalan Giants, which expires this summer. He has been linked with many teams in England such as Tottenham and Manchester City, but newly promoted Ligue 1 team Monaco has come up with an offer.
The goalkeeper has reportedly accepted their terms and his decision on moving to the Stade Louis ll this transfer window is already "final".
Barca are seen as ready to wait for Valdes to publicly announce his desire to leave the club, and then will move on to accept offers from 20-25 million Euros for the keeper.'
In December 2011, two-thirds of the club was sold to an investment group led by Russian billionaire Dmitry Rybolovlev, allowing them to put major amounts of money into strengthening their team with big name superstars.
Monaco have cashed in big with new billionaire owners, and are a big challenger now in the market being rumored to acquire the services of huge names in the sport such as Radamel Falcao, Joao Moutinho, Adriano and even have gone as far to put a 100-million euro big on Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo.
