Fabrizio Romano has drawn attention to the exceptional form of Alejandro Grimaldo, placing the full-back among the top performers in his position this season. The Italian journalist highlighted the Spaniard\u2019s consistency and attacking output, suggesting that his performances deserve wider recognition.<\/p>\n
Grimaldo, currently playing for Bayer Leverkusen, has delivered remarkable numbers from a defensive role. The 28-year-old has scored 14 goals across all club competitions, a rare return for a full-back. Alongside that, he has registered 11 assists, taking his total goal contributions to 25 so far this season.<\/p>\n
Romano\u2019s praise comes at a time when Grimaldo\u2019s influence continues to grow in Leverkusen\u2019s system. Known for his attacking runs and set-piece ability, the Spanish defender has scored five goals from free-kicks and added four penalties to his tally. His ability to impact games in the final third has made him a key figure for the German side.<\/p>\n
Despite these numbers, Grimaldo has not always been part of mainstream discussions around the world\u2019s best full-backs. Romano\u2019s comments aim to change that narrative. The journalist described him as one of the most in-form players in his position, stressing that his performances cannot be overlooked any longer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
