Barca defender plays down Spurs and Man Utd links
Jordi Alba has poured cold water on reports linking him with Tottenham and Manchester United.
The Barcelona defender has a £52.5million buy-out clause in his contract which has reportedly caught Spurs and United’s attention, despite reports that the Red Devils were not prioritising the signing of a left-back.
But Alba, currently with the Spain squad at the World Cup, insists he would prefer to remain at Barca.
“I’m very happy at Barcelona and if it depended on me, I would stay here forever,” Alba told El Mundo Deportivo.
“It depends on my level of performance and it was very good throughout last season, which was a great campaign for us.
“It depends also on the club’s decision but if it is up to me, I will not be leaving Barcelona.”
