Significant Alex Valle Celtic Update

Barcelona’s Alex Valle has successfully completed his medical in Glasgow, paving the way for his official unveiling as a Celtic player on Wednesday, CeltsAreHere understands.

The 20-year-old left-back has finalised his season-long loan to the Scottish champions, with all paperwork now signed and sealed.

Celtic have agreed to cover 100% of Valle’s wages during his stay, which is reported to be around £24,000 per week. Despite the significant financial commitment, the deal does not include an option to buy, while some uncertainty surrounds his general release fee that are attached to La Liga contracts.

Valle’s arrival could be just the beginning for Celtic this week, as the club is expected to be active in the final days of the transfer window. With the deadline looming on Friday night, Brendan Rodgers is looking to bring in further reinforcements to bolster the squad for both domestic and European Football.

The young defender, who spent last season on loan at Levante, is highly regarded in Spain, with many Barcelona fans expressing confidence in his potential. His move to Celtic is seen as a key step in his development, offering him the chance to gain regular first-team experience in a very comPetitive environment.

As fans look forward to Valle’s unveiling, attention will also turn to the potential for more signings before the transfer window slams shut.
