Alba was the only member of the Barça squad that couldn't drive

Until just a few days ago, Spain defender Jordi Alba was the only member of the Barcelona squad without a driving license. 

However, that is no longer the case. The L'Hospitalet left-back has now passed his test and arrived at training on Saturday on his own, driving his own vehicle, for the first time. 

In a video shared on social media by the journalist David Ibanez (Mediaset), Alba can be seen driving his car into the facilities at the training ground in Sant Joan Despi. 

"Today for the first time we have seen Jordi Alba driving," Ibanez wrote. "He now has his driver's license. Congratulations. This is how he very carefully arrived for training this morning." 

Until now, Alba had counted on the help of his family -- especially his father and brother -- to be able to get to training each day. 

At 31, the Catalan defender, who has been at Barça since 2012, no longer has to worry about asking for lifts to work.
