The mystery of Valdes' disappearance

The mass media has almost no idea where Valdes is.

Valdes was an icon in the Barcelona goal during the golden age of Pep Guardiola. With his skillful footwork, great reflexes and steely spirit, he helped shape a glorious era for the Catalan team.

During his career, Valdes won 6 La Liga, 3 Champions League, 2 FIFA Club World Cup and countless other individual and collective titles. However, behind the halo, Valdes always kept a discreet style, rarely showing off or seeking attention off the field.

During his playing days, at the height of his fame, Valdes once shocked everyone: "When I retire, I will disappear. I will go to a place where no one can find me." It seems he has now kept his promise.

After retiring from playing in 2017, Valdes did not completely leave football. He tried his hand at coaching, starting with the Moratalaz youth team, then returned to Barcelona to coach the U19 team in 2019. However, this journey did not last long. After only a few months, he left the U19 team due to conflicts with the club's leadership.

In March 2025, Valdes accepted the job of Real Avila, a third-tier Spanish team. But after just four games, in May, he suddenly resigned without giving any detailed explanation. Since then, Valdes has completely disappeared from the public eye.

Marca revealed that people who knew Valdes said he had cut off almost all contact. “He doesn’t reply to messages. He deleted WhatsApp. There is no Instagram or any trace on social networks,” a source close to him shared.

Those who worked with Valdes describe him as a stoic person, away from all the noise of modern life. Until now, no one knows what happened to Valdes.
