Jordi Alba (Left-back, 2012-Present)

Alba was a student of La Masia before his spell with Valencia, from whom the Catalan giants purchased the full-back for 1 4 million euros. Jordi has been an undisputed first-team left-back ever since his arrival and continues to be one of the best in the world for that position.

The Spaniard is best known for his ability to be telepathically connected with Messi in order to produce many sensational goals across countless matches. Fans around the world wonder if any of the forwards had a better understanding of the magician, the squad would have been even more deadly on the attack.

Alba’s fast pace is what makes it difficult for oppositions to cope with his attacking runs down the flank. The Spanish international has racked up an incredible 57 assists during his time in Camp Nou and continues to aid the Barca attack with his outstanding ability to connect crosses.

Jordi has been a major part of the club’s success in recent years, having won 5 La Liga titles, 4 Spanish Super Cups, 1 UEFA Champions League, 1 FIFA Club World Cups and 4 Copa del Reys with Barca.
