New Barcelona coach Hansi Flick is set to give Alex Valle a chance to be part of the first-team squad for next season.
Valle spent last season on loan at Levante but now has a great chance to stake a claim to be Alejandro Balde’s back-up, according to multiple reports from Spain.
The imminent departure of Marcos Alonso means there’s a place up for grabs in the squad, and a shortage of left-backs, which is good news for Valle.
Barcelona are said to have met with the 20-year-old’s agent this week to confirm he will be part of the squad when pre-season training starts in July and the idea is that he stays on.
