The former Barcelona man looks set for Old Trafford…

Free agent Victor Valdes looks set to sign for Manchester United in the near future. However, with David de Gea already at the club, it seems a quite unnecessary transfer.

Here are six other sides who look like they need the former Barcelona man more than the Red Devils, but were unable to sign him…

Liverpool

With both Simon Mignolet and Brad Jones not looking up to scratch if the Reds want to become a regular Champions League side, Valdes would have been a perfect signing. It may have helped their back line no end if they had a keeper they could trust behind them.

Paris Saint-Germain

Salvatore Sirigu is not a bad goalie, but at the same time he is not of the standard need if you want to become the best team in Europe. The former Barca man has already proven that he is of that quality in his time in Catalonia.

AC Milan

While looking great at Real Madrid, Diego Lopez has not made the greatest of starts at the San Siro. A stopper of the calibre of Manchester United’s new signing could make a real difference to a team that are still struggling in Serie A.

Arsenal

None of Wojciech Szczesny, David Opsina Damian Martinez really seem to inspire confidence in their defenders, and having a former Champions League winner in the side may finally inspire the Gunners to reach their potential.

AS Roma

The Serie A giant’s current number one Morgan De Sanctis may be a very good goalkeeper, but at the same time he is now 37-years-old and will need a successor. Valdes would be if anything an improvement on the Italian, and is five years younger. He could help them to really challenge Juventus for the Scudetto.
