Barcelona had loan spells with FC Andorra and Levante for the first half of the season. Before the player returned to pre-season training, starting at right-back in the 2-1 win over Real Madrid. Where the 20-year-old impressed Hansi Flick.
Flick is reportedly planning to push Valle into the first-team next season if Barcelona fail to re-sign Joao Cancelo from Manchester City. With him competing with Gerard Martin for the left-back position to be back-up to Alejandro Balde.
After Barcelona failed to register him as a first-team player by August 1. Valle’s release clause was reduced from €30m to just €3m. But the Blaugrana are reportedly considering a new deal with the player. Which would give the coach more options and also benefit his future business.
