Barcelona's Spanish stalwart defender Jordi Alba is set to wave goodbye to the Catalan club this summer after 11 years of dominating the left flank.

The 34-year-old Alba and the Spanish champions announced Wednesday that they've agreed to terminate his contract one season early.

Alba, who joined in 2012 from Valencia, helped Barcelona will six La Liga titles, five Copa del Rey trophies and the Champions League in 2015.

"FC Barcelona would like to publicly express its gratitude to Alba for his professionalism, commitment and dedication, and his ever-positive and friendly relationship with all members of the Barça family, and wishes him every fortune in the future,” the club said in a statement.

"Barça will always be a home for you, Jordi,” they added.

The veteran defender has made 458 appearances for Barcelona and has contributed 19 goals and 91 assists.

Last week, longtime holding midfielder Sergio Busquets also announced he will leave the club this summer.

Barcelona host Mallorca on Sunday before ending their season at Celta Vigo.
