dead”, according to Standard Liege coach Yannick Ferrera.
The 34-year-old has joined the Belgian club on loan until the
end of the season after falling out of favour with Louis van
Gaal at Manchester United.
Values has played just two competitive games since May
2014 but his new manager insists the goalkeeper is an
“exceptional professional” and would already be fit enough
to feature in a match.
“From what I’ve seen he’s very good to play now. You
barely notice that he’s been out for a while," Ferrera told
Marca .
“If tomorrow there was a match, he would [play]. He has
been training at a high level these days and will provide the
expertise we need in that position.
“I have found an exceptional professional. An hour before
the session, he is preparing to train.
“He wants to prove he’s not dead. He has years of football.
And, although I have not spoken to him, I don’t understand
why he would not be able to go with the Spanish team to the
European Championship. I do not know if he will have that
goal, but I encourage him.”
