Alen Halilović to wear Las Palmas jersey

On Friday, 20-year-old Alen Halilović was presented as a new Las Palmas player, on loan until the end of 2017/2018 season. The Spanish club also has the option to purchase Halilović at any time. 

"I am happy to be here, and I believe Las Palmas is a very good option for my future. I like the way Las Palmas play, I've watched many games and I enjoy this style. I can cover more positions and I'll do whatever the coach asks", said the young Croatia international.

Halilović became a Barcelona player following the senior introduction at Dinamo Zagreb. Last season he was loaned to Sporting Gijon, and then moved to German Bundesliga. Halilović was capped nine times for Croatia, with his first appearance dating from 2013 and the friendly match against Portugal.

Another Croatia international, Marko Livaja, defends Las Palmas colours.
