Victor Valdes retires





Former Barcelona goalkeeper Victor Valdes has retired.
The 35-year-old, who also played for Manchester United and Middlesbrough, has hung up his gloves and has launched a TV production company and will have his own show.
The Spaniard rejected offers from Deportivo la Coruna and Sporting Lisbon to continue playing this season.
Valdes is one of the greatest keepers in Barcelona’s history, winning La Liga six times, the Champions League three times, the Super Cup six times, two Copa del Reys and bagged the Fifa Club World Cup twice.

And he was part of the all-conquering Spain team, lifting the 2010 World Cup two years before victory in the Euros.
But the end of his career was marked by disappointment and surprise transfers.

Michael Owen’s Premier League predictions, including Swansea City v Manchester United and Stoke City v Arsenal

  A wonderful start to the Premier League season with goals, red cards and a couple of major shocks. Brand Ambassador Michael Owen again shared his thoughts exclusively with BetVictor on this weekend’s fixtures. Swansea v Manchester United I was impressed with United against West Ham on Sunday but they need to back it up against a Swansea side who didn’t have a shot on target at St Mary’s on Matchday One, and may have been a shade fortunate to come away with a point. Romelu Lukaku scored twice on his Premier League debut for Man Utd (Picture: Getty) The Swans have never kept a clean sheet in their 12 previous Premier League games against the Red Devils and Jose Mourinho’s side were irresistible at times against the Hammers at Old Trafford. Swansea will take heart from the fact that they have lost just once in their last eight Premier League games at the Liberty Stadium, but I was not surprised to see BetVictor trim United from 7/2 to 11/4 for the title in the afterma...
