Apparently the Balo to Juve thing was a fake. I think we need to move this discussion to the LFC thread by the way.
Why did Victor Valdes join Manchester United to be their back-up? I heard rumours he turned down a move to Liverpool, where he surely would’ve been No 1 – is it just for money? Rich
GUILLEM SAYS: I was absolutely convinced that he was going to Liverpool. I have got very good reasons to say so and I know a lot of people in Liverpool who also thought he was going. But he felt that he was being trialled at Anfield.
And very cleverly, Louis van Gaal said we are not going to trial you, just come and train with us. But in a way, it was the same thing. It was just the choice of words he used, so Valdes decided to go there instead.
Now both Valdes and David de Gea finish their contracts at the same time at United. De Gea is wanted at Real Madrid, so Valdes has nothing to lose while he gets back to his best form, which will not be this season.

Just a rumour or was there something more substantial?
