Villarreal is in a delicate process of reflection: deciding whether to continue with Alfonso Pedraza or make the definitive leap towards Carlos Romero as his heir on the left flank, according to Fútbol Fantasy.

The La Cerámica club faces a crucial month ahead with imminent decisions regarding its squad. Villarreal, aware that Molina is set to leave a mark, carefully evaluates which path offers greater solidity in the medium term.

Villarreal ponders the future of Alfonso Pedraza

Villarreal approaches the renewal of Alfonso Pedraza cautiously. The Cordoba-born full-back's contract expires on June 30, 2026, and a decision on his continuity is needed before January 1 to prevent him from negotiating freely with another club.

The sports management values his experience, the 200 games already played as a groguet, and his versatility to play as a winger if necessary. However, Alfonso Pedraza has faced a long phase of injuries, affecting his continuity in the team. The Castellon entity is considering whether to renew his contract or allow him to leave freely to reset the process.

Villarreal and the rise of Carlos Romero

Villarreal closely monitors Carlos Romero, on loan at RCD Espanyol, where he has shown remarkable performance. The left-back born in Torrent emerges as a future alternative that fits the institutional project and could return to Villarreal with a more prominent role.

His excellent campaign at Espanyol has strengthened his position within the Yellow Submarine club, which is considering his return as part of the 2026-27 plan. Villarreal, however, keeps open the possibility of extending his loan or even negotiating his departure if a suitable offer arises.

Villarreal faces a strategic choice

Choosing between Alfonso Pedraza and Carlos Romero is not just an individual matter; it implies defining the club's identity for the coming years. Villarreal examines different scenarios: retaining both and moving Pedraza to the wing, or opting for renewing Alfonso Pedraza and assigning Carlos Romero to a substitute role.

Competition also includes Sergi Cardona, another young player with chances of prominence. While the continuity of academy product Pedraza provides experience, selecting Romero represents a commitment to youth and freshness. Aligning with the return to the Champions League means Villarreal needs clear decisions in its defense.

In conclusion, Villarreal stands at a crossroads. Renewing Alfonso Pedraza would maintain a pillar of the present, while opting for Carlos Romero would mean building the left flank of the future. The next month will set the course for the Castellon club and clearly indicate the direction of its project.
