Carles Alena turns down Premier League move - report

Barcelona midfielder Carles Alena has reportedly turned down a pretty tasty offer from a leading Premier League club.

The 22-year-old, who is currently on loan at Real Betis, said no because he remains determined to succeed at Barcelona, according to Sport.

The report reckons the deal was worth over €25 million and included a big pay rise for the midfielder but he wasn’t too interested.

Indeed Alena is said to be not thinking about leaving Barcelona at all and is looking forward to heading back to the Camp Nou once his loan deal is over.
