Trilli set to leave for Real Valladolid

One of the names set to move on from Barcelona this summer is Trilli. Indeed, according to SPORT, the 22-year-old right-back is very close to becoming a new Real Valladolid player.

The La Liga 2 side has shown strong interest in the defender, and while the deal is not yet finalised, negotiations are at an advanced stage.

Trilli is expected to sign a two-year contract with Valladolid an option for a third season. Despite spending several months sidelined with a long-term injury, he has continued to attract attention from various clubs.

Ultimately, the offer from Valladolid proved the most convincing for his camp, as the club sees him as a long-term asset with valuable experience.

Trilli’s departure would add to the list of recent exits from Barça Atletic, including Aleix Garrido, Alan Godoy, Diego Percan, Ruben Lopez, Ivan Cedric, Pedro Soma, Aziz Issah, and Juan Piera, as part of a significant squad overhaul.

Trilli joined Barcelona two years ago from Deportivo La Coruna and was regarded as one of the most promising full-backs in Spanish football. During his time with the B team, he suffered two consecutive injuries and experienced the team’s relegation.

Now, with the chance to return to professional football, the 22-year-old defender will have a fresh opportunity to prove his potential at a club with clear ambitions of promotion.
