Alex Valle, born on the 25th of April 2004 in Spain, is a robust defender who is currently plying his trade for Italian club Como. A versatile left-back, he stands 5ft 10in (1.8m) tall and has a sturdy build, weighing in at 12st 8lb (80kg). Valle, who dons the number 41 jersey, is also a former Spain Under-21s international.
Valle's current market value is around £3.8m according to Transfermarkt. His contract with Serie A side Como runs out at the end of June 2025, only a mere three months away.
Now, let's delve into his career. Valle cut his teeth at Barcelona, where he began as a trainee in July 2018. In January 2023, the promising full-back was tugged towards FC Andorra in Spain's Second Division B/1 on a loan spell. He made a handy seven appearances in the league during his debut season at the Andorran club.
On completion of his loan in June 2023, Valle went back to Barcelona, but not for long. In August of the same year, he was shipped out on loan to Levante UD in Spain's Segunda Division. He hit the ground running there, with 29 first team league appearances to his name throughout the season.
Upon the culmination of his time at Levante, Valle returned to Barcelona in June 2024. But in the same breath of summer, Valle moved northwards on a loan to join the Scottish Premiership with Celtic in August 2024.
Ah, yes. Valle's brief fling with Celtic. In the 2024-2025 season, the defender had 11 league games to build his reputation in the green and white halved jersey. But alas, it wasn't a stay of considerable length, as in January 2025, he returned to Barcelona on completion of the loan spell.
Fast forward to the same January, Valle journeyed from Barcelona to Como in Italy's Serie A on yet another loan. Currently, at the Como club, he has logged 12 first-team league appearances this season.
