Jordi Alba Admits it Is 'Strange' Barcelona Have Not Opened Discussions Over New Contract

Barcelona left-back Jordi Alba has admitted he is uncertain as to where his future lies, with the club yet to open discussions to negotiate a new contract for the Spaniard.

Alba's current deal expires at the end of next season, and many clubs seek to avoid letting their players enter the final year of their contracts as it can have a negative impact on their transfer value. There have been rumours linking Alba with a move to Manchester United, but Barcelona are yet to offer an update on Alba's future.

Speaking after his side's 1-1 draw with Atletico Madrid on Saturday, Alba admitted he is perplexed by his current situation.
