The new Messi: who is Álex Alcalá, the Mexican star who rejected FC Barcelona and reached MLS?

There are many players who are compared to the FC Barcelona player Lionel Messi, but the Mexican Alex Alcala has everything to be able to meet expectations. Alcala played in the youth divisions of FC Barcelona like Lionel Messi but decided to leave there to sign with Manchester City but before that he played in LA Galaxy with Chicharito Hernandez.

FC Barcelona never offered Alex Alcala a good contract, so the young man decided to abandon his career alongside Lionel Messi and sign with Manchester City. The Premier League club decided to improve it was to send him to the LA Galaxy until he turned 18 and then analyze what to do.

Like many children of Mexicans who live in the United States, the new mexican Messi was born in the United States but feels Mexican and that is why he already participated in several youth divisions of the Mexican team. Although today he belongs to Manchester City, he tried to become a Pachuca player, but without success.

Today Alex Alcala is one of the young promises of Mexican soccer and he is excited to know that he could share a team with Javier Hernandez in the LA Galaxy. The new Mexican Messi will have the opportunity to demonstrate in LA Galaxy if the nickname is really well used or if he has been compared to Lionel Messi simply to remember.

The Mexicans who play in LA Galaxy:

Alex Alcala will have the possibility to play with several compatriots in the LA Galaxy team. In the first place is Chicahrito Hernandez who will have to guide the young player a lot from his experience. Then there is also Jonathan Dos Santos, Efrain Alvarez and Julian Araujo, only the last two players could choose to represent the USMNT.
