Jordi Alba will not be in Inter Miami’s starting lineup against Palmeiras at the FIFA Club World Cup.
Group A of the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 will be decided this Monday. On Matchday 3, Porto vs. Al Ahly and Inter Miami vs. Palmeiras will be played simultaneously to determine the two teams advancing to the round of 16. Despite the high stakes, Jordi Alba will not start for the Herons.
In the minutes leading up to kickoff, coach Javier Mascherano confirmed the starting eleven, which does not include the Spanish left-back. The reason is that Alba has been dealing with a hamstring injury for several weeks and, while he is fit to play, he is not at 100%. However, he will be on the bench and could be subbed in if the situation calls for it.
