Jorquera contract caps 'perfect week'

FC Barcelona goalkeeper Albert Jorquera has signed a new and improved contract with the European title-holders on the eve of his 28th birthday.

'Perfect week'
Jorquera, understudy to No1 Víctor Valdés, has accepted fresh terms from the club and will remain committed to the Camp Nou cause until June 2008. Although none of the homegrown keeper's seven Primera División appearances have come this season, he has featured five times in the current Copa del Rey campaign – catching the eye in Barcelona's 2-1 quarter-final win at Real Zaragoza on Wednesday. "This has been a perfect week for me," said the Catalan, who had signed a four-year deal in 2004.
