Man City weighing up an offer for Middlesbrough's Victor Valdes - source

This is a modal window.

Pep Guardiola believes that it is vital Manchester City finish third to avoid the Champions League qualification stages.

Manchester City are considering a move for Middlesbrough goalkeeper Victor Valdes, sources close to the North-East club have told ESPN FC.

Valdes, 35, is expected to leave Middlesbrough this summer in the wake of their relegation from the Premier League and City are monitoring his situation.

City are in the market for goalkeeping reinforcements this summer with Willy Caballero out of contract next month and yet to be offered a new deal, and while Joe Hart is due to return from his season-long spell at Torino, he appears to have no long-term future at the Etihad Stadium.
