For this reason, the Catalan club would be left without a great option in the defense and for this reason the Mexican coach of the youth club, already proposes a solution to Xavi Hernandez. It would be precisely Edson Alvarez, the Mexican midfielder of Ajax Amsterdam.

The midfielder can also play in the role of defense so he would be a highly versatile player, something that Xavi's squad currently lacks. According to Rafa Márquez in an interview with Milenio, "Edson is ready to be one of the great references in the Mexican national team".
