Victor Valdes is set to leave Barcelona less than three months after returning to the club as the coach of their under-19 team, sources have confirmed to ESPN FC.
Barca announced late on Friday that the former goalkeeper would not be on the bench for Saturday’s game against Gimnastic in Tarragona. The Catalan club said his future would be discussed in a meeting in the coming days.
However, sources have told ESPN FC that Valdes has already said goodbye to his players and that they do not expect him to continue as their manager.
Valdes, 37, was given a dressing down on Friday by Patrick Kluivert, who is the director of youth football at the Spanish champions, Jordi Roura and Aurelio Altamira. There have been clashes over a range of issues, including the team's formation, the management of star player Ilaix Moriba and Valdes’ failure to turn up for important meetings with other coaches at the club.
Meanwhile, Valdes has complained publicly about the fact his team only play at the new Johan Cruyff Stadium when they have UEFA Youth League games. (ESPN)
