It called me just after the operation to know how was and transmitted me tranquility. That I was player of the first team, that the injury had not changed at all. That they would not look for any exit for me. It appreciates a lot because it gives you security. As it was all so fast, did not know what could happen. They are messages that need to be able to face better the recovery".
Aleñá Also gave the keys to be impoortante in the first team, ensuring that Ernesto Valverde asks him "that it follow with what came doing in the Barça B the past year. This character of leader, of not to hide, to look for the balloon and turn me to associate me. That it test, that kick, that risk and that defend... It does not want to see me constrained, does not like him. The past year when it went up with them still was it, but now with the trainings and the parties go taking desparpajo".
