‘Where will I be better off than home?’: Alex Balde pledges forever love for Barcelona

“Plans on leaving Barcelona? I’m at home here. Where else would I be better off?

“My plan is to retire here,” Alejandro Balde told Barca One.

Well, it’s only natural for the defender to want to stay at the club where he’s spent 13 years, having joined the youth academy back in 2011.

We wouldn’t mind seeing Alex don Blaugrana colours for his entire career, though at just 20, he has many years ahead before even thinking about retirement.
