Jordi Alba has joined Inter Miami after agreeing personal terms with the club. The player will reunite with his former Barcelona teammates Lionel Messi and Sergio Busquets at the club. The pair were presented as new signings for the MLS side this past weekend. And now, the prolific left-back will be joining them in America.
Club president Jorge Mas confirmed his arrival recently, and he will soon be unveiled as a new Inter Miami player.
Jordi Alba signs for Inter Miami after leaving Barcelona
The Spaniard won the Nations League with Spain this summer, and has now left the spotlight of European club football alongside his former Barca teammates. He spent over ten years with the Blaugranes, making 459 appearances.
During this time, he won six La Liga titles and the Champions League in 2015. At 34, he is expected to see out the final chapter of his illustrious career in the MLS, and will have a huge task.
Inter Miami are winless in their last eleven MLS games, and will be looking to turn things around when they face Charlotte FC in August.
The presence of Jordi Alba will be a significant catalyst in their fortunes potentially changing for the better in the coming months.
