Álex Valle, a Spanish-born player, was born on 25 April 2004, making him 21 years of age. Primarily a defender, Valle's position of choice is left back, which he currently plays for Como. Standing an imposing 5ft 10in (1.8 metres) and boasting a sturdy frame of 12st 8lb (80kg), he is an unmistakable figure on the field, identified by his number 41 jersey. Besides his club commitment, Valle Gómez has also garnered international exposure, representing the U21 national team of his homeland, Spain.
Valle's current market value stands at about £3.8m according to Transfermarkt. His stint at Como is nearing its closure, with his contract poised to expire on 30 June 2025, a mere 2 months from now.
Álex Valle's journey as a professional footballer began in Barcelona, Spain, where he joined the LaLiga club as a trainee in July of 2018. Progressing through the ranks, Valle secured a loan move to Second Division B/1 club FC Andorra in January 2023. In his debut 2022 - 2023 season at FC Andorra, Valle made seven first team appearances in league matches.
Following his loan spell, Valle returned to Barcelona in June 2023. His time back at Barcelona was short-lived, as he joined Segunda División side Levante UD on loan in August 2023. During the 2023 - 2024 season at Levante, Valle made a commendable 29 first team appearances in league matches.
In June 2024, Valle completed his loan period at Levante and returned to Barcelona. However, a new adventure beckoned, and in August 2024 Valle was loaned out to Celtic in the Scottish Premiership. It was here at Celtic where Valle made 11 first team appearances in the 2024 - 2025 season.
Valle's tenure at Celtic culminated in January 2025, and he returned to Barcelona. It was not long before he was again on the move, this time on loan to Italian Serie A side, Como. At Como, Valle continues to ply his trade. During the ongoing 2024 - 2025 season, he has already made 15 first team appearances in league matches.
Armchair supporters of Celtic might recall with nostalgia the brief period when Valle was donning the green and white hoops. During his half-season loan stint in Scotland, Valle was a resilient fixture in the Celtic squad. His athletic stature and grit on the field made him a noteworthy defender within the team. The 11 first team appearances he made in that single season showcase the trust invested in him by the gaffer and his unwavering commitment to the club's cause.
