Goalkeeper ruptures ankle ligaments

Barcelona are expected to use the January transfer window to sign a goalkeeper after Albert Jorquera was ruled out for six months with ruptured ankle ligaments. Jorquera injured his anterior ligament in his right ankle in a friendly against Bilbao and is expected to be sidelined until June. The shot-stopper is second choice at the Camp Nou to Victor Valdes but Barca are expected to use the New Year window to bring in cover. And Barca director Txiki Beguiristain and coach Frank Rijkaard are understood to have held a meeting to identify potential targets. Getafe's Argentinean goalkeeper Oscar Ustari is rumoured to be highly-rated by Barca and the Catalan giants could make a make a loan move for the 20-year-old.
