Barcelona midfielder Carles Alena is set to join Getafe on a loan deal for the remainder of the campaign, report Spanish radio station Cadena Cope.
It is said by the report that Los Azulones boss Jose Bordalas is a huge admirer of Alena and he has worked hard to convince the central midfielder to join the club for the rest of the season.
This goes together with Blaugrana boss Ronald Koeman’s reported intentions of allowing Alena’s exit as he does not feature in his first-team plans until the end of the campaign.
