Alba said it was “the right moment to start a new chapter and close the current one with a beautiful feeling.”
Inter Miami will kick off the tournament against Al Ahly at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami on June 15.
“I’m very happy and excited to take on this new challenge with Inter Miami.”
Nominated alongside the 24-year-old were Argentina’s World Cup hero and Inter Miami forward, Lionel Messi and Manchester City’s free-scoring striker, Erling Haaland.

“It’s a fact. When I joined Juventus, Serie A was dead, and then after I signed…it was revived.”
“The idea is to work together to achieve the objectives we set, and I’m very eager to start helping here in my new home.”
The 29-year-old is scheduled to undergo medical tests with the Bavarians soon and will put pen to paper on a three-year deal before an official announcement.
Gonzalo Higuaín currently plays for club Inter Miami, owned by former Manchester United legend David Beckham.
