Midfielder Xavi Grande is no longer a Levante UD player after a mutual contract termination agreement was reached this Friday. Mundo Deportivo reported that the club and the player have ended their association ahead of schedule, cutting short a deal that was valid until June 2028.
Levante, currently sitting ninth in La Liga with four points from a win, a draw, and a loss this season, makes this squad adjustment. The team has scored and conceded five goals, placing them five points behind the league leaders, Barcelona.
Who is Xavi Grande?
Xavi Grande is a pure product of Levante's youth academy. He joined the club at the benjamín level and completed his development by progressing through every youth category. His path culminated in a first-team debut on October 3, 2023, in a match against Villarreal B at the Ciutat de València stadium.
The midfielder played a total of 27 matches for the senior side. He was part of the squad that achieved promotion to the Primera División, a significant milestone in the club's recent history. Beyond his club career, Grande has represented Spain at the Under-18 and Under-19 international levels.
What happened last season?
Last campaign, Xavi Grande embarked on a professional experience outside of Spain. He was loaned to Portuguese side CS Marítimo during the summer, seeking consistent playing time. This loan move preceded the definitive decision to part ways, which has now been finalized with the contract termination. The mutual agreement allows the player to seek a new destination with complete freedom.
