According to Leisu Sports on May 17, Alba, one of the important players in Barcelona’s history, is currently playing for Inter Miami. Although far from his homeland, he has always kept an eye on his old club Barcelona’s developments, especially the rapidly rising young star Yamal in recent years.
After Barcelona won this season’s La Liga title, Alba expressed his congratulations: “I want to congratulate Barcelona; I think they performed exceptionally well this season. Although I do not know the current coach, I have heard many positive reviews about him, and from the outside, he seems to treat the players very well. This team is well organized, plays with a clear style, and is very young. I am genuinely happy for their success.”
Alba specifically mentioned Yamal: “He made his debut when we were playing; I remember he was about 15 years old, and his debut was against Betis. Even then, he showed extraordinary talent. Over the past two years, his physical development has been very noticeable. He is truly a decisive player, which is unbelievable.”
Regarding the 17-year-old young prodigy, Alba gave high praise: “He has now become a strong candidate for the Ballon d’Or. Achieving such success at such a young age is astonishing. I hope he continues to improve and humbly listens to those who truly understand football. Watching him play is a joy, and I wish him all the best for the future.”
