Lucas Pérez is looking for a team and Alavés would welcome his transfer

It is true that last year many lies were told about the relationships between players in the Alavés dressing room. Lucas Pérez, for example, was involved in a hoax of skirts in which a teammate was implicated. The two were placed in the hands of the Justice, a judge gave permission to probe the networks, an expert located the whassap audio author and there is a complaint against him that will have to be seen how it evolves in practice.

But that nor remove so that the Galician striker has had someone hooked in the locker room with a heavyweight of the same. The situation reached such difficult moments that, for example, Pitu Abelardo decided to displace Lucas from the calls and of the official matches. He spoke of lack of respect and non-negotiable situations. Other sources even say that it almost came to blows with players with many stripes in the locker room. As it is internal, there it will stay safely.

But the truth is that, contrary to what those responsible for the club say in public appearances where they strive to throw balls out, Lucas has left a very bad taste in his mouth in the dressing room this year. The player is not entirely comfortable at Alavés and the club would not frown upon an offer that could lead to his departure from the entity. “We want to recover this player because we all know his quality but he has to be very clear about the club he is in”Sergio Fernández, Alavés Sports Director, said recently. We will see if it is feasible or if it is impossible.

Nor has it been a great year for the Galician striker. The last goal he got against Levante in the first round and then has wandered between injuries, annoyances and controversies. He is a player with a superlative level but he has not caught on in Vitoria enough. He did it two seasons ago after scoring eleven goals like his countryman Joselu Mato. In this campaign he has been closer to the controversies than to the celebrations, quite the opposite of Joselu who has returned to sign eleven goals. Sevilla wants to take it but, for now, it has to refer to the 15 million euro clause. It is also true that if it continues and does not renew, it will have to be sold now or in the winter market. In June 2022 he would be free. Barcelona and Sevilla considered their incorporation last January. Barça, likewise, tried it with Lucas in the winter section of 2020 but in the end they incorporated Braithwaite.
