Inter Miami have announced the signing of Spanish left-back Jordi Alba, who will join his former Barcelona teammates Lionel Messi and Sergio Busquets.

“We are going to sign Jordi Alba today,” said businessman Jorge Mas, co-owner of the team along with David Beckham, during a meeting with the press.

The Spanish international announced in May his departure from Barcelona where he spent 11 seasons. Now he will join two of his former teammates in the culé team: the Argentine Messi and his compatriot Busquets.

Alba, 34, won the League of Nations with the Spanish team last month, one more title for his enviable record.

The left-back has won, among other titles, a European Championship, a Champions League, six Spanish championships and a European Super Cup.

Inter Miami is confident that his new team, led by superstar Messi, can turn the tide in the American soccer league, MLS.. At the moment, it occupies the last place in the championship.
