Jordi Alba is officially on his way to the United States, much to the excitement of Inter Miami fans who are looking forward to seeing the Spanish left defender play alongside former Barcelona colleagues Lionel Messi and Sergio Busquets in South Florida.

Alba, who is currently 34 years old, has agreed to a contract that will keep him with the Herons until the 2024 MLS season. The news of Alba’s signing was technically announced by the Herons exactly one week ago today.

This past Saturday, the champion of the Champions League for the 2014–15 season uploaded a photograph of himself on Instagram. In the photo, he can be seen embracing his huge dog while getting ready to board a private plane to leave Barcelona.

He scribbled, “Let’s go!” in a footnote that was attached to the article. (which literally translates to “Come on, let’s go!”).

A caption accompanying the tweet read, “Have a safe trip.” “In a short while, each and every one of us will be gathered together. You can count on our affection! Go ahead and give it a shot already!!

Romarey Ventura, who is also well-known on the internet in Spain, is married to Alba, and about ten days ago, she gave birth to the couple’s newest kid, a son named Paolo. The internet celebrity Romarey Ventura is also well-known in Spain. At the time, there were a great number of people who had the theory that this was the reason why the player’s move wasn’t made till now.

Alba’s arrival on a free transfer comes after his contract with Barcelona was terminated by mutual agreement in May.
