Àlex Carbonell Vallés (born 15 September 1997) is a Spanish footballer who plays as a central midfielder for Dutch club Almere City.
Born in Sant Cugat del Vallès, Barcelona, Catalonia, Carbonell initially joined FC Barcelona's La Masia in 2003 at the age of six. He left the club in 2011 for Cornellà, but returned in 2013.[2]
On 29 August 2015, while still a youth, Carbonell made his senior debut with the reserves by coming on as a late substitute in a 0–0 Segunda División B home draw against Pobla de Mafumet.[3] On 21 November of the following year, shortly after being promoted to the B-side, he signed a new five-year deal with the club.[4]
Carbonell made his first team debut on 30 November 2016, starting in a 1–1 away draw against Hércules, for the season's Copa del Rey.[5] The following 27 July, he joined Segunda División side Reus Deportiu.[6]
Carbonell left Reus in January 2019, after Reus was excluded from the LFP.[7] On 31 January, he signed a short-term deal with fellow second division side Córdoba.[8]
In March 2019, Carbonell agreed to a pre-contract with Valencia, being assigned to the B-team for the 2019–20 campaign.[9] On 9 July, he moved abroad for the first time in his career after agreeing to a one-year loan deal with Eredivisie side Fortuna Sittard.[10]
On 29 September 2020, Carbonell joined Swiss club Luzern, signing a two-year contract.[11] On 13 July 2021, after being rarely used at Luzern, Carbonell signed for Celta de Vigo and was assigned to the B-team in Primera División RFEF.[12] Roughly one year later, he returned to Barça and their reserve team also in the third tier, on a one-year deal.[13]
On 13 July 2023, Carbonell agreed to a contract with Amorebieta, newly-promoted to division two.[14]
On 26 June 2024, Carbonell signed a two-year contract with Almere City in the Netherlands, with an optional third year.[15]
