Malaga goalkeeper Willy Caballero has admitted that he would relish the chance to replace Barcelona's Victor Valdes at the Camp Nou next season.

The Argentine stopper has impressed this season for Malaga, producing a string of impressive performances during a debut run to the Champions League quarter-finals for Manuel Pellegrini's side.

With Valdes destined to join Monaco in the close season, Caballero has insisted that he would not hesitate to swap Malaga for Barca if given the opportunity.

He told Spanish radio show Esports Cope: "If Barcelona called me, I would not hesitate. I would not let the phone ring twice.

"Who would not like to play with these great players? Only a stupid person would say no to Barcelona.

"I hope Valdes can keep on demonstrating that he's a great goalkeeper wherever he goes on to play next year."

The 31-year-old will get another chance to impress Barca boss Tito Vilanova this weekend when Malaga finish their La Liga campaign with a trip to face the Catalan giants.
