With his stay at Manchester United being cut short by the Dutchman, it will be interesting to see what the future has in store for the former Barcelona goal-keeper. Valencia are reportedly interested in his services amongst rumours suggesting that Real Madrid could sign him in case a deal for David De Gea falls through this summer.
