Alba eyes long stay at Barcelona

Barcelona left-back Jordi Alba says he is very happy with life at the club and has no plans to leave anytime soon.

The Spain international joined Barca from Valencia at the start of the 2012/13 campaign after previously being part of the club’s youth academy.

Alba said he had no regrets about his return to the La Liga leaders.

“It was a dream to come back and I’m playing at a good level. It feels like I’ve been here for years. I hope to stay a very long time,” Alba told the club’s website.

“I’m at the best club in the world and I play for the team that plays the best football. I’m very content, I can’t ask for more.”

The 23-year-old has made 18 La Liga appearances so far this term, scoring two goals.
