Liverpool make contact with Barcelona keeper Valdes

Liverpool are being linked with off contract Barcelona goalkeeper Victor Valdes. Valdes, who comes off contract next week, is recovering from knee surgery, which has raised doubts over his pre-contract with AS Monaco.

Indeed, Monaco are now backing away from the agreement, though Valdes' camp insists he will soon undergo a medical with the French club.

Meanwhile, Sport says Liverpool are in touch about bringing Valdes to Merseyside next season.

The 32 year-old would arrive to compete with Simon Mignolet for the No1 spot and also end doubts about Pepe Reina moving on this summer.
