Marcos Alonso could be living his last months as a FC Barcelona player. The Madrid native has had a practically testimonial role in the squad this season, so the club would be considering not renewing his contract
The days of Marcos Alonso in the FC Barcelona seem to be increasingly near to finish. The left side arrived to the Barcelona club in the year 2022 and since has contested a total of 44 meetings. Nevertheless, his contractual links with the combined culé expires at the end of this campaign and, as it informed 'SPORT', does not seem that the club was in position to renew it.
In this period 23-24, the Madrilenian alone has played 299 minutes, because of several circumstances. On the one hand, the irruption of Iñigo Martínez has reduced his opportunities to play like alternative of left-handed defender. Equally, the 'tandem' Balde-Cancel has consolidated like the option preferred for the left side. In case it was little, Alonso has suffered physical problems that have carried it to go through the operating theatre recently to resolve some problems in the back. It expects that it return to the terrains of game to finals of February or principles of March.
The future of Marcos Alonso would be out of the City Condal
In front of the increasingly limited opportunities of game in the Catalan team, added to the fact that it is a player with a quite high wage to be acting, does not result surprising that the Barcelona was considering to do without his services. Even, according to the source quoted previously, expects that the club communicate his decision to the player to finals of January.
If it confirms this determination, the square of the City Condal will see forced to look for in the market a left side that can arrive in quality of free agent or yielded, to complement the busy position by Alejandro Balde and, in case that Joãor Cancel continue in the club the next season, have an active extremely useful.
By his part, Marcos Alonso, in spite of his limited opportunities, still seems to have football in his boots, by what would not be surprising that find quickly a new team. Even it could remain in LaLiga, if finally it fulfils the rumour that spoke of the interest of the Athletic of Madrid in ficharlo without cost at the end of the season. Also it has mentioned the interest of teams of Saudi Arabia by the player, although it will be necessary to see if this interest keeps and, the most important, if Alonso is had to leave the elite of the European football.
