Barcelona loanee Alex Valle is reportedly on the radar of Borussia Dortmund following a series of standout performances on loan at Italian side Como. According to Mundo Deportivo, the 20-year-old left-back has caught the eye of several European scouts, with Dortmund among the most impressed by his potential.<\/p>
The 20-year-old Spaniard began the season at Celtic, making ten starts across all competitions. However, his loan spell at Celtic was cut short in January, paving the way for a mid-season switch. Valle joined Como in January and has quickly established himself as a key figure in the Italian side. His mature displays and attacking instincts have made him one of the first-names on the team sheet.<\/p>
Como took another big step away from the relegation zone with their third consecutive victory on Saturday against Lecce. Under the guidance of manager Cesc Fabregas, Valle has flourished at Como. Fabregas recently lauded the young left-back for his consistency. <\/p>
\n“Alex is a very young player, only 20 years old, and he has a lot of room for improvement<\/em>,” said Fabregas. “He’s been a very consistent performer for me.”<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>
Valle’s solid displays have not gone unnoticed, with Borussia Dortmund now reportedly preparing a move for the defender. The German giants are believed to be keen on activating the €6 million release clause in his Barcelona contract.<\/p>
