FC Barcelona Confirm Yet Another Permanent Departure

FC Barcelona have confirmed their sixth permanent first-team departure as the club continues to reduce their wage bill.

The Catalan giants have been warned by LaLiga to reduce their wage bill ahead of the new season and that means offloading a few players.

Barcelona have now confirmed that they have reached an agreement with fellow LaLiga outfit Getafe for the sale of midfielder Carles Alena.

Alena spent te last season on loan at Getafe, where he racked up 27 appearances across all competitions, including three in the UEFA Champions League.

Statement:

FC Barcelona would like to thank Carles Aleñá for his commitment and dedication and wishes him all the best for the future.

Alena has made 44 appearances for the Barcelona first team and has won one LaLiga title and two Copa del Rey trophies.
