Sources close to the situation have told ESPN that Jordi Alba, the Barcelona defender, has been approached by Inter Miami to gauge his interest in joining the club. However, they face stiff competition from Atletico Madrid, Inter Milan and clubs in Saudi Arabia.

Alba looking for new club

Alba, who is 34 years old, has reached an agreement with Barca to end his contract a year early, which was due to expire in 2024, and is seeking a new club this summer. Sources have stated that Alba has not yet eliminated any of his options and will make a decision after this week’s UEFA Nations League finals in the Netherlands.

Inter Miami’s interest in Alba

Following Lionel Messi’s announcement that he would join Inter Miami last week, sources have confirmed that Barca midfielder Sergio Busquets has also held talks with the MLS side. Alba is the most recent Europe-based player to be approached by the South Florida team. Sources have confirmed that no formal negotiations have taken place, and there is no offer on the table. Miami must also decide how to manage its three designated player spots. However, Alba has shown a willingness to listen to the team’s proposal.

Alba’s options

Sources have confirmed that there have been offers from Saudi Arabia, while Atletico Madrid and Inter Milan are among several European clubs interested. Alba may prefer to stay in Europe with the European Championships coming up in Germany next summer and with his wife due to give birth to their third child next month. Alba will evaluate his options with his family after the Nations League, with a decision expected to be made in the coming weeks.

Jordi Alba is in high demand from several clubs, including Atletico Madrid, Inter Milan and clubs in Saudi Arabia, as well as Inter Miami. He is currently part of the Spain squad that will meet Italy in the semifinal of the UEFA Nations League finals on Thursday. Alba has not yet made a decision on his next club, but he will evaluate his options with his family after the tournament.
