However, the &#8216;cul\u00e9s&#8217; have fewer urgencies on the left side compared to a &#8216;merengue&#8217; team in need of reinforcements throughout their defensive line.<\/p>  <p>For the moment, Bar\u00e7a seems to have the position well covered, with Alejandro Balde as a starter and Gerard Mart\u00edn as a substitute. In addition, <strong>the price of the Valencia player (around 40 million euros)<\/strong>, although not an unaffordable amount, is a high figure for the still narrow Bar\u00e7a salary margin.<\/p>  <p><strong>Grimaldo added 4 goals and 13 assists in 48 games (3,869 minutes) in the 24\/25 season<\/strong> with Xabi Alonso&#8217;s team, more discreet records than in his first season in Germany (12G\/20A), but still remarkable for a defender. In addition, the 29-year-old defender has admitted on several occasions his desire to return to LaLiga.<\/p>  <h2>Alejandro Grimaldo, &#8216;crazy&#8217; to return to Spain with a big team<\/h2>  <p>&#8220;<strong>Barcelona, Real Madrid, Atl\u00e9tico are great. My club knows that my dream is to play in Spain again<\/strong>. It is a pride to be considered for any of these teams,&#8221; said the defender in a recent chat with the &#8216;COPE&#8217; network. In addition, the Spanish international also made it clear that his goal is to continue working to make the leap to a big team in the short term.<\/p>  <p>Grimaldo left Bar\u00e7a in 2016 to sign for Benfica in exchange for 2.1 million euros. <strong>In Portugal he added 22 goals and 66 assists in 303 appearances with the &#8216;eagles&#8217;<\/strong> after seven seasons. In 2023 he left with a free letter to Leverkusen, where he quickly became one of the untouchables of the team that won the double (league and cup) a year ago.<\/p>  <h2>Madrid seems to rule out, for now, the signing of Grimaldo<\/h2>  <p>In that sense, the arrival of Xabi Alonso to the Madrid bench gives the whites a certain favoritism in the &#8216;race&#8217; for Grimaldo. It is likely that the Tolosa coach wants to take one or two pieces from his Leverkusen to Chamart\u00edn and, for the moment, the left-back and <a data-external=\"0\" data-intl-links-en=\"https:\/\/www.fcbarcelonanoticias.com\/en\/transfers\/wirtz-release-price-in-2026-what-will-barcelona-do_312597_102.html\" data-intl-links-es=\"https:\/\/www.fcbarcelonanoticias.com\/fichajes\/que-hara-barcelona-este-seria-precio-salida-florian-wirtz-2026_312597_102.html\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fcbarcelonanoticias.com\/en\/transfers\/wirtz-release-price-in-2026-what-will-barcelona-do_312597_102.html\" rel=\"follow\" target=\"_self\" title=\"What will Bar\u00e7a do?: This would be Florian Wirtz's release price in 2026\">Florian Wirtz<\/a> are the players that sound the strongest on the white radar.<\/p>  <p>However, <strong>the possible arrival of \u00c1lvaro Carreras (Benfica) may close the door to the Valencian<\/strong>, understanding that one of the two left-backs in the Madrid squad (Fran Garc\u00eda and Ferland Mendy) will stay at least one more year.
