According to Mundo Deportivo, defender Jordi Alba and his agent have been in talks with Inter Miami over a transfer, with terms of the player's deal now agreed. The Spanish international's maximum salary in MLS is $2m (£1.5m). Alba's move to Inter Miami will see him reunite with his career-best partner, Lionel Messi, who has also arrived in the US. While the deal for Alba is close to being finalised, Inter Miami are keenly aware of the competition they face for the 34-year-old superstar, with the US club looking to find other sources of income to boost the former Barca star's salary, including the possibility of becoming an ambassador for the 2026 World Cup in the United States, Mexico and Canada.

In addition, the 1989-born defender has also received interest from clubs in Saudi Arabia, while Inter Milan and Atletico Madrid want to keep the player in Europe, but Alba is said to have no intention of making a decision until after the Nations League final between Spain and Croatia. However, insiders believe that the left-back is now getting closer to joining Inter Miami, after announcing his departure from Barcelona as a free agent.
Considered one of the best left-backs of his generation, Jordi Alba has made 313 appearances for Barcelona, winning almost every major honour. Moving to MLS seems to be the end of his career at the top level.
