Improvin' Perfection!!
JORDI ALBA
Born: 21 March 1989
Birth Place: Hospitalet de Llobregat, Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain
Position: Left Back
FC Barcelona
Jordi Alba started his football career by training in the youth ranks of Barcelona, but the Catalan giants felt Jordi was too small, so they released him.
UE Cornella
Jordi then went to play with Cornella. Cornella is in the Tercera (Third) Division, which is actually the fourth level of Spanish football.
VCF Mestalla
After one year with Cornella, Alba signed with Valecnia for just €6,000. He would help the Valencia reserves gain promotion to Segunda B (The Segunda or Second Division, is broken up into Seguna A and Segunda B). He would also earn a call-up to the Spain U-19 side that year as well.
Gimnàstic Tarragona
For the 2008/2009 season, the Catalan left winger went on loan to Segunda side Nastic. He would make 37 appearances, starting 24 games. He had four goals as well.
Valencia CF
Jordi returned from loan and started the 2009/2010 season in VCF's preseason camp. He impressed the coaches and management so much that he earned himself a spot in the first team. He scored two goals in his first two preseason matches with the club.
He would go on to have a good debut season for Los Che. Surprisingly though, he spent much of his time at left back, after an injury sidelined Jérémy Mathieu for three months, and the fact that Asier del Horno had been loaned out to Real Valladolid in January. On April 11, 2010, he scored his first goal for the club, in a 2–3 loss at RCD Mallorca.
International Career
Alba made three appearances for the Spain U-19 squad at the UEFA U-19 Championships and helped Spian win a gold medal at the 2009 Mediterranean Games.

I'm pretty sure he would go on to be 'The One That Got Away' or probably to be precise 'The One That We Lost'
Really impressed me. He's got too much pace & an eye for goal. I think he has a bright future
