Van Gaal blocks Valde’s loan move

It looks like the feud between former Barcelona goalkeeper Victor Valdes and Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal is not about to end anytime.

Reports from England have it that the Dutchman has blocked Valde’s move to Newcastle United on loan.

Valdes and Van Gaal have had a long standing feud since the beginning of the season something that has seen the player banished from the first team.

Worse, the player trains on his own and the frustration has seen Valdes in need to move. Newcastle had offered to sign him up as back up for Rob Elliot who has been elevated to the number one position as Tim Krul is ruled out for the rest of the season with an injury.

In other transfer news, Barcelona are reportedly interested in signing Arsenal’s Aaron Ramsey.

The Spanish club sent scouts to watch Ramsey feature for the gunners in last midweek’s 3-3 tie against Liverpool according to the Express.
