Alejandro Parra grew up in San Francisco, Maracaibo in Venezuela. At only 21 years old, he has already shown great potential as a left winger, especially as a super-sub who can come off the bench to provide a burst of energy and make things happen. Not the tallest at 1.73m, his speed and quick footwork make him a difficult player to mark, and he's particularly effective at getting behind defences and making runs into the box. Although he's still developing his game, he's already shown enough promise to be a fan favourite, and many are excited to see how he'll progress over the coming years. He has continued his love for traditional Venezuelan music like Joropo and Salsa since moving to New York, he has immersed himself in the city's vibrant Latin music scene. He goes to concerts and dance parties in Latin clubs throughout the city, including popular spots like SOB's in Greenwich Village and La Boom in Queens.
