Alan Serrano Signs with CF Pozuelo for the 2026/27 Season

We’re pleased to announce that Alan Serrano has signed with CF Pozuelo for the 2026/27 season.

Alan’s road to Spain started a long way from any of our events. A defender from Cumaná in Venezuela’s Sucre state, he came through the Fundación Deportiva Alexander “El Pequeño” Rondón. The academy founded by former Venezuelan international Alexander Rondón and went on to represent his state. He had the ability, the discipline and the competitive mentality. What he didn’t have was a path to Europe.

At 20, Alan also knew the window was narrowing. Development stints weren’t enough anymore; he needed a club that would register him. And he was realistic about how to get there. He told us from the start he’d rather earn his place at a lower level and get his foot in the door than chase a big name and miss.

Before any of that, though, his family did their homework. Alan’s uncle researched Elite Football thoroughly before anyone in the family picked up the phone. He knew the academy scams that target young players and wasn’t about to let his nephew become one of them. Only once he was satisfied did the family commit, and they committed fully, with Alan’s father and uncle backing him every step of the way.

Alan flew to Spain and joined CF Pozuelo on 1st of April 2026 for what was planned as a two-month stint. The senior coaching staff had seen enough: they wanted him registered to play, with the season still live. That short stay has now become a full season.

From Head Agent Juan:

“We couldn’t be happier for Alan. I know how much he and his family have sacrificed to get here, and I’m proud we could play a part in getting him across the line.

Aside from being a top player, Alan is humble, works hard, and has had the right attitude every day since he arrived in Spain. He sets a great example for the players around him, and he’s proof that earning an opportunity is about more than what you show on the pitch. It’s about being the kind of person clubs want to invest in.

We wish Alan all the best in the next phase of his football journey, and we’re excited to be there to support him throughout it.”

From Alan Serrano:

“Estoy muy contento de haber conseguido esta oportunidad con el Pozuelo CF. Ha sido un largo camino llegar hasta aquí, pero cada esfuerzo y sacrificio han valido totalmente la pena. No solo por todo lo que he trabajado yo, sino también por el apoyo y los sacrificios de mi familia, especialmente de mi padre y mi tío, a quienes estaré eternamente agradecido. Quiero agradecer también a Elite Football, especialmente a Juan y Alan, por haber confiado en mí desde el primer momento y por haberme ayudado a conseguir esta oportunidad para seguir creciendo y desarrollándome como jugador. Por último, dar las gracias al Pozuelo CF por brindarme esta oportunidad y confiar en mi talento. ¡Con muchas ganas de empezar esta nueva etapa y seguir trabajando para conseguir grandes cosas!”

“I’m very happy to have earned this opportunity with Pozuelo CF. It’s been a long road to get here, but every effort and sacrifice has been completely worth it. Not only for everything I’ve worked for myself, but for the support and sacrifices of my family, especially my father and my uncle, to whom I’ll be forever grateful. I also want to thank Elite Football, especially Juan and Alan, for believing in me from the very first moment and for helping me earn this opportunity to keep growing and developing as a player. Finally, thank you to Pozuelo CF for giving me this chance and trusting in my ability. I can’t wait to start this new chapter and keep working to achieve great things!”

Alan never set foot at one of our events. He found us from the other side of the world, his family tested us, and the clubs we work with did the rest. From Cumaná, Venezuela, to CF Pozuelo in Spain, that’s the pathway working exactly as it should.

Congratulations, Alan. All the best from the whole EFA team.
