MADRID, Mar. 29 -- Valdes has already thrown down the gauntlet to Cristiano Ronaldo and Real Madrid, according to the screenshot of Marca. As Barca's starting goalkeeper, Valdes' statements made during an interview the day before were defined by a reporter from Marca as "a demonstration of professionalism". The reason is very simple: "I hope that Ronaldo will be on the field for the Clasico on March 29." Although Barca eventually won the UEFA Champions League final in the 08/09 season, the intimidation exerted by Ronaldo on the field is still fresh in the memory of the goalkeeper of Nou Camp. Similarly, no one can deny that Ronaldo's return will only bring threats to Barca. However, as a professional player, Valdes looks forward to a truly meaningful strong-strong dialogue: "Personally, I have always hoped to compete with really excellent players in the game. Without a doubt, Ronaldo is one of these people. He can give Real Madrid a lot of help, and I also know how much Cristiano looks forward to playing this classic battle." There are too many topics about this Clasico where Real Madrid plays away against Barcelona. Valdes doesn't want to say too much, as Barca still has two other games before this - La Liga against Athletic Bilbao and UEFA Champions League against Inter Milan: "First of all, we must win at San Mames Stadium and accumulate belief for the team. Anyway, Barca has opponents to face other than just Real Madrid."
