Levante loses Edgar Alcañiz in the transfer market

Levante is left without young midfielder Edgar Alcañiz, who joins Atlético Madrid's reserve team. The club searches for new challenges in the 2026-2027 season.

What happened?

Atlético Madrid officially signed Edgar Alcañiz for their reserve team. The 21-year-old player arrives free after Levante gave him a release clause. Additionally, the club reserves some rights and sports objectives.

Why is it important for Levante?

The loss of Edgar Alcañiz is a blow for Levante, which seeks to consolidate itself in La Liga. The young midfielder was one of the promises of the club and his departure leaves a void in the squad.

What comes next?

Levante will seek to strengthen its squad in the transfer market for the 2026-2027 season. The club needs to find players who can help improve its position in the league table.

Levante finished the 2025 season in 16th place in La Liga with 42 points, 11 wins, 9 draws, and 18 losses. Currently, the club has 47 goals scored and 61 goals conceded, with a -14 goal difference. The next Levante fixture is on January 31, 2027, when they will face Real Sociedad at home.

Atlético Madrid adds a midfielder with great potential to their squad, who stands out for his understanding of the game and a style of play that brings balance to the team. The player from Sueca has been with the Spanish Under-18 national team, a demonstration of the potential that has always been attributed to him during his formation period.
