Barcelona defender not considering exit from the club amid Premier League links – report

Over the past week or so, there have been some speculations surrounding the future of FC Barcelona veteran Marcos Alonso.

The 32-year-old Spanish left-back is yet to be registered by the club along with Inaki Pena and Inigo Martinez due to some difficulties with Financial Fair Play.

And with Joao Cancelo soon set to arrive, Alonso’s registration could be delayed further to accommodate the Portuguese international first.

As such, it has sparked speculations over the former Chelsea defender’s future in Catalonia.

Last week, reports suggested that Barça would happily let go of Alonso if a good offer arrives.

Furthermore, it was also reported that Alonso was already evaluating an offer from a Premier League club.

Alonso not contemplating a departure

However, as per a fresh update from Sergi Capdevila of SPORT, Alonso is not studying any offers at the moment and is not considering an exit from Barcelona this summer.

Barcelona manager Xavi Hernandez and his coaching staff are also not contemplating the possibility of offloading Alonso either

After all, following the loan exit of Alex Valle, the Blaugrana have been left with Alonso as the only natural backup for Alejandro Balde in the left-back position.

And even though Cancelo could be an option once he arrives, the Portuguese is being brought in to solidify the right-back slot.

As such, neither Alonso nor Barça are considering the possibility of parting ways with each other at this point.

And the club are hoping to resolve the matter of his registration this week, with Sergino Dest now leaving the club and Clement Lenglet also expected to follow suit in the coming days.
