Barcelona youngster Alex Valle, currently on loan at UD Levante, is unaware of what the club has planned for his future, reports Mundo Deportivo.
A graduate of the Catalans’ La Masia youth setup, Valle’s first-team experience came in unofficial matches before the last season, following which he was sent out on loan to Levante.
Xavi liked Alex Valle
Heading into the next season, with the departure of Marcos Alonso all but guaranteed, the left-back position in the Barcelona squad will be left short-handed.
When Xavi was still in charge of the team, his planning for the 2024/25 season had Alejandro Balde as the first-choice left-back with Alex Valle operating as the backup in the position.
Given the club’s fragile economic situation, signing a new replacement for Alonso is going to be a challenge, and as such, Xavi believed Valle could be the solution.
