Elche's key playmaker, Aleix Febas, reportedly has concrete interest from Espanyol. Febas is a 30-year-old Spanish midfielder whose future is uncertain because his contract is expiring. His style of play is also considered a good fit for Ajax and technical director Jordi Cruijff. Febas is described as the 'compass' of his team. A potential move is also linked to his current coach, Eder Sarabia, who has been associated with Ajax. It has been suggested that Sarabia might want to bring the midfielder with him in the event of a move to Amsterdam. Febas joined Elche in July 2023 and has a current market value of €5.00m, according to Transfermarkt. In the 2025/2026 LaLiga season, he has made 28 appearances, scoring 2 goals and providing 1 assist.
