He rejoined Espanyol before then moving to FC Barcelona in 2018. Barca paid their city rivals €50,000 for his services.[1][2] Alba was recognised as one of the best talents in the Barcelona youth sides, even as he adjusted to a new more central midfield position than he had at Espanyol.[3] Alba signed on to play for FC Barcelona Atlètic for the 2022–23 and 2023-24 seasons.[4][5] He has continued his progress under newly appointed Barcelona Atletic manager Rafael Marquez and Alba’s regular age group partner Marc Casadó playing alongside him in central midfield.[6][7]
