Valencia release keeper Hildebrand from contract

Valencia have agreed to release goalkeeper Timo Hildebrand from his contract, the Primera Liga club said on Thursday.

The Germany international, who missed out on the squad for Euro 2008, arrived on a free transfer from VfB Stuttgart in July 2007 and was seen as the long-term replacement for Santiago Canizares.

But the 29-year-old dropped out of contention under new coach Unai Emery, who has favoured new Brazilian arrival Renan as his first choice this season.

Hildebrand had a contract with Valencia until 2010.
