Liverpool custodian Pepe Reina has reportedly confirmed that he is quitting the club to join back Barcelona next summer.

Reina is currently on a season-long loan at Napoli after being frozen out at Anfield and he said that he has no interest in ever returning to Liverpool.

According to metro.co.uk, the 31-year-old goalkeeper said that he would love to return to Barcelona and playing there is a privilege.

The report said that Reina's exit is tipped to be a replacement for the departing Victor Valdes, who will leave at the end of the current campaign to peruse a new challenge.

However, Reina said that getting to the club is a tough battle with several other players to get Valdes' No.1 shirt.
