Carles Alena Disappointed in Rarely Being Played by Ernesto Valverde

DBasia.news –  La Masia’s product, Carles Alena, could not believe Ernesto Valverde for rarely playing him in Barcelona’s main team.

Carles Alena is one of the original products of La Masia. The player began routinely in the first team since December 2018.

However, for matters of playing minutes, the 21-year footballer still has not received many opportunities. In this season, Alena only appeared for 45 minutes when Barca defeated from Athletic Bilbao.

Carles Alena felt that Valverde needed to give him a chance to show off. The Spanish player continues to prove himself worthy of penetrating the starter position.

“There is no explanation for me to always being reserved after against Athletic Bilbao. No players are happy when being ignored in the team,” Alena stated as reported by Marca, quoting RAC1.

Competition in Barcelona’s midfield is fairly tight. Besides Arthur and Sergio Busquets, Los Cules also still has Ivan Rakitic and Frengkie de Jong. When using flight hours as an indicator, Elena is clearly far behind.

“I believe every player has a chance to fight and try to win a place in the first team. I’m sure all the players in Barcelona will be played,” he continued.

“I believe 100 percent in being able to reverse this situation. I have ambitious success in Barcelona,” continued the player.

One of the ways Carles Alena can receive playing minutes is to leave on loan. Currently, the U-21 Spanish national team player is still under contract until June 2022.
