Deportivo Alaves has confirmed the permanent signing of Finnish defender Ville Koski, who will join the club until June 2031. Koski arrived in Vitoria-Gasteiz during the winter on loan from NK Istra, and his performance has convinced the sports management and coaching staff. During his loan, the center-back displayed great personality and commitment, playing a crucial role in Alaves's survival in LALIGA EA SPORTS. In his two starts, the team managed to keep a clean sheet, which was essential in the decisive phase of the season. Born in Tuusula, Finland, Koski was developed at PKKU and had a notable career at FC Honka before moving to Croatian football. His defensive capabilities and strength in the air make him a key player for the future of the Glorioso. With this signing, Alaves strengthens its defensive line and bets on the growth of a young player with great potential.
