The 'blanquiazul' club's decision comes at a critical time for the young footballer from Tenerife, whose contract was set to expire at the end of the current campaign. A call from Rayco García, the club's majority shareholder, confirmed to the player that the club would not abandon him after his misfortune during the match against CP Cacereño.
“"Any player who suffers an injury defending the 'blanquiazul' crest with honor and courage will never be left alone."
With these words, García informed Alassan of the one-year contract extension, providing him with the necessary peace of mind to face his recovery process. This action aims to eliminate the contractual uncertainty surrounding the player, allowing him to fully concentrate on his rehabilitation.
The young winger will undergo surgery this afternoon for the severe knee injury. His recovery period is estimated to be between six and eight months, which means a premature end to his current season. Nevertheless, this renewal is seen as significant moral support before his operation.
The club has emphasized its unconditional support for the footballer, stating that “he will do so knowing that the team of his life is by his side.” This show of commitment has been widely praised by Tenerife fans, who appreciate CD Tenerife's dedication to nurturing its youth talent.
