Victor Valdes Set for Barcelona Exit as Club Confirm Meeting With Youth Coach Next Week

Barcelona have confirmed that youth coach Víctor Valdés will be called in for a meeting over his future next week after appearing to fall out with fellow club legend Patrick Kluivert, who's in charge of the club's academy.

Kluivert was brought in during the summer as part of a shakeup behind the scenes at Barcelona, but the former Netherlands international apparently doesn't see eye to eye with Valdés over the direction of the club's infamous La Masia academy.

Catalunya Radio (via AS) claim that Valdés has already told his players that he doesn't know if he'll be kept on, and Barcelona have already confirmed that the former goalkeeper will not be on the sidelines this weekend.
