With Liоnel Mеssi jоining Intеr Miаmi rеcеntly, his close friеnd аnd dерarting Bаrcelonа captain Jоrdi Albа is nоw ɡеttinɡ closer tо а rеunion with thе Arɡеntinе аt thе MLS club, rерorts  Mundо Deportivo’s  Fеrrаn Mаrtinez.

Alba announced his intention to leave Barcelona last month, despite the fact that he still had a year left on his contract. The 34-year-old’s departure helps the Catalan players with their financial condition because he was expected to earn in excess of €30 million the next season.

Alba announced his departure from Barça a while ago, and as of this writing, there has been no update on his intended next destination. The left-back had said that he will make a decision following Spain’s UEFA Nations League games.

Alba has offers from organizations like Inter Milan and Athletico Madrid, and teams in Saudi Arabia are also interested, aside from Inter Milan.

However, as of right now, talks with the Daid Beckham-owned MLS franchise are progressing favorably, with the Spanish international moving closer to relocating to Florida this summer.

One of the three marquee player spots that Inter Milan have is occupied by Messi, the other is taken up by Josef Martinez, and the third spot is being reserved for Sergio Busquets.

Alba would therefore be a TAM (Tаrget Allocator Money) player at the club, a little bit below the marquee players but with a salary cap of around $2 million annually.

Due to this, efforts are being made to find the Spain captain an additional source of income, either through sponsorship or a potential ambassadorial position for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, which will be jointly hosted by the USA.

Alba’s decision won’t just be based on the project or the financial aspect because he plans to become a father soon. The well-being of his family will therefore play a significant role when the judge makes a decision on his future.

While a final decision has not yet been made, all signs seem to point toward a reunion with Messi at Inside Miami.
