Aleñá nearly joined Getafe 2 years ago when Rafinha fell victim to injury just before the January window opened up.
With Barcelona’s congested midfield, it may be time for the club to let the 21-year-old embark on his own journey.
“I’ll speak with them this afternoon, or tomorrow, to see whether or not the kid will stay there. I like Carles Aleñá and wanted him two years ago.
“He could cover the place if somebody else left. If no one leaves, no one will come in.
“But Markel is tired of suffering and if he retires, we’ll have a spot open. He wants to retire and we’ll need to replace him.
“The market is open and there are players who want to join us. We’re in the Europa League and any deal which could improve us now, or for the future, is something we’ll value.”
Earlier this month, AS reported that the two sides had agreed to a six-month loan deal for the player.
