Former Spain and Barcelona left-back Jordi Alba will retire at the end of the current Major League Soccer season.
The 36-year-old won Euro 2012 with Spain and the Champions League with Barcelona before joining former team-mates Lionel Messi, Sergio Busquets and Luis Suarez at Inter Miami in 2023.
Miami have qualified for the play-offs which are scheduled to end in early December.
“The time has come to close a truly meaningful chapter in my life”, Alba said in a video posted on Instagram.
“I’ve decided to bring my professional football career to an end at the conclusion to this season. I do so with complete conviction, with peace, and with happiness”.
