The player began his career at La Masia blaugrana, but had to leave their ranks for several years to return as one of the players with the greatest projection in the first team.
“Alba has been much more than a very fast winger. He has wonderfully internalized the phrase that ensures that 'power without control is useless'”, the club concluded.
