Barcelona boss Ernesto Valverde is hopeful that Jasper Cillessen will stay with the Spanish champions beyond the end of this summer's transfer window.

Cillessen, 29, has only made two La Liga appearances for Barcelona since his arrival in 2016, with Marc-Andre ter Stegen very much the number one goalkeeper at the Catalan club.

Cillessen has a contract with Barcelona until the summer of 2021, and it is understood that the stopper's release clause stands in the region of £53m.

The Dutchman's future has been called into question over the last few months, but Valverde is hopeful that the stopper will decide to remain at Camp Nou.

"It's true that I have spoken to Jasper, but I cannot repeat what was said here at a press conference," Valverde told reporters.

"It is clear that we count on him as I have already repeatedly mentioned - we value him a lot and we want him to stay. We need two good goalkeepers and we have them, so we want to keep going on this path."

Earlier this summer, it was reported that Barcelona would sell Cillessen if they received an offer of £27m.
