According to Spanish media outlet Relevo, La Liga side Alaves have shown strong interest in United Berlin's back-rower Alex Karrar and plan to send an offer that includes a loan and potential buyout clause. The news has attracted a lot of attention in the soccer world as Carrar, a versatile midfielder, has been highly regarded for his performances at Union Berlin in recent years.
Karal, the young player born on May 19, 1998 in Košice, Slovakia, started his career at Brno Moravians Slavia and then received systematic soccer training at Brno Arsenal and Slavia Prague, among others. His soccer journey has taken him to several countries, from the Czech Republic to Russia to England and Germany. During his time with Spartak Moscow, West Ham United and Schalke 04, Kalal gained a wealth of experience and developed into a technically versatile midfielder with excellent positional sense.
In the summer of 2023, Kallar joined Union Berlin on a loan deal and won the team's recognition for his outstanding performances in the following season. In the summer of 2024, he officially moved to Union Berlin as a free agent and became an integral part of the team's midfield. Carrar plays mainly at the back, but his abilities go far beyond that. He can also play as a midfielder, forward, right winger, right and left winger, as well as a center back. This versatility allows him to adapt his position to the team's needs and contribute to the team's success in the game.
In the recently concluded 23/24 season, Kallar made 32 appearances in all competitions for Union Berlin and had a good performance. He is a solid defender, accurate passer, and also has some attacking ability to create chances and score key goals for his team. It is therefore not surprising that Alaves are interested in him.
