The former Barcelona man was on the move this week
Ex-Barcelona wide man Aleix Vidal insists his move to Alaves is not a step back in his career after joining the Basque club from Sevilla.
The Catalan winger thanked Alaves for taking a chance on him in his presentation on Monday and promised to try and repay their faith in him.
"It only took a 15-minute call with Sergio Fernández to know what I needed was to return to a club like this," he explained. "A humble club like Almeria."
