The left-handed side seemed to have potential and sufficient qualities as to be able to arrive to the first team, but in spite of this not even arrived to have an opportunity with the greater. In 'Sportive World' have explained the reasons by which the carrilero of the Benfica, rival of the Barça in Champions League, finish going by the rear door.

The defence arrived to the filial and settled in the left lane showing an ease tremenda to go up the band and be important in attack. However, Luis Enrique, in this moment trainer of the Barça, did not want to have he by reasons of indiscipline. The character of the Valencian was not the best and the Asturian technician always saw him too prepotente to give him minutes in the first staff.

Eusebio Sacristán, míster of the B in this period, also had some problem with him by his form to be. Although it was key for his diagram, the vallisoletano had to separate him of the team in several occasions by his attitude out of the terrain of game and even by infringir the internal code of the club.

Luis Enrique was in this second group and is therefore by what not even wanted to give him occasion to play to his orders.

I carry me very well with him, it helps me in everything and helps me to be better. That the one of up was with his players and I will be with my team", affirmed Alejandro.

These statements finished to sign his sentence in the Barcelona, by what the defence decided to leave to final of this same campaign. It denied to renew finish agreement this summer, and in January of 2016 the entity accepted an offer of the Benfica of 2 million euros so that it did not go free.
