Valencia Buys Enrique From Barcelona

VALENCIA, Spain-- What's going on in La Liga? Don't they know you're supposed to buy international players, and not supposed to sell good players to your rivals?

Just one week after Betis made news by signing away Fernando Morientes from Real Madrid, Valencia and Barcelona have negotiated a deal to move star forward midfielder Luis Enrique to Valencia for £6.5 M.

There is also reportedly a clause for a higher fee based on appearances, which, barring injury, you would have to think Enrique will qualify for.

Enrique, 32, is one of the more creative playmakers in the world, and is himself a star of many international matches with Spain's national side.

Enrique had five goals and four assists in eight matches with Barcelona.
