Manchester Nightmare of Valdes

What seemed like a new life of opportunity has become a nightmare for Victor Valdes at Manchester United. Louis van Gaal humiliates Victor Valdes!

Substitution first, then slights their coach Louis van Gaal and now the claim of his wife Yolanda Cardona the club for not having invited her husband to the traditional annual dinner in honour of UNICEF.

Without hesitation twice, the wife of Valdes published in Instagram: "They not invite my husband @ vicvaldes1 to be part of # united4unicef ​​is the last thing you expect from one of the biggest clubs as manchester united. A charity event is always a charity event. "

Victor Valdes' Manchester United career has taken what end appears to be one ugly turn after the player's wife ... It is not the first time when the former goalkeeper of Barcelona is outraged with his new club. Since coming to the Red Devils in January 2015 after his successful spell at FC Barcelona, ​​where he won six leagues, two Spanish Cups, six Super Cups in Spain, three Champions League , two UEFA Super Cup and two World Club. It has been ignored - humiliated might say - by his current coach.

With only two official matches played in his 11 months with the Old Trafford (only one start), where he came on as a substitute of its compatriot David de Gea, van Gaal has condemned the goal ostracized, to the point align the team U21 United. That was on January 26 against Liverpool, and although all surprised that determination, at that time thought it was only to give tempo to the experienced goalkeeper.

But it was not like that. The few opportunities talk of the British press, which began to externalise and rumours that the Dutch coach had a null relationship with fellow world champion and Europe with the Spanish team turned.

After the season, in July this year van Gaal announced that the goal had been put on the transfer list after he allegedly refused to play with the reserve team. Even a number assigned to him for viniente season.

And it would not stop there. In a controversial decision that touched and humiliation, van Gaal ordered Valdes is not the first team will train together in Carrington, the main clubhouse. If the first team practiced in the morning, playing Spanish to do so in the afternoon, and vice versa. Always alone. Ultimately asked for the treatment of a world champion, van Gaal cited the denial of Valdés to play with the U21 team as the reason for his intemperate decisions.

The goalkeeper has left a message on social networks in relation to the complicated situation in the Manchester ... Valdes, 33, had arrived at United after failing to renew with Barcelona after suffering a serious knee injury in March 2014, which left him out of the World. In October of that year, the United offered to the goalkeeper the opportunity to continue his rehabilitation in the clubhouse, and three months would offer a contract year and a half to wear red.

However, it seems that if there will be light at the end of the tunnel.

As reported espnfc.com Valdes and United are close to cancel the contract to allow the goalkeeper to seek new directions. It is said that several British teams have shown interest in the player, but the club does not want to go to a rival of the League Premier, preferring him go to another league.

And as several teams from Spain (referred to Espanyol and Valencia ) have sounded the phones in Carrington awaiting a winner as goalkeeper Valdes as it has been the number 1 of its clubs sets.
