Perfect – David Alaba moves to Real Madrid

The fact that David Alaba would leave Bayern in the summer had been official since February. But for a long time it was unclear which team he should go to. Now the question has been resolved.

David Alaba will play for Real Madrid next season. The “royal” announced today. The Austrian is coming to the Spanish top club from FC Bayern on a free transfer and has signed a five-year contract.

He had previously played for Munich since the A-youth. The defender has played for the record champions’ professionals since 2010. During that time he made 431 games and scored 33 goals. With Bayern, Alaba has been German champion ten times, making it a Bundesliga record holder together with Thomas Müller. There are also two Champions League victories, two club world championships and six successes in the DFB Cup.

Alaba’s change is the second important personnel decision in the Spanish capital within two days. On Thursday the club announced the resignation of coach Zinedine Zidane. It has not yet been decided who the team around national player Toni Kroos will train in the coming season.

Austria’s Footballer of the Year will be presented in Madrid after the European Championship (June 11th to July 11th). In Group C, Alaba fights with the Alpine republic against North Macedonia (June 13), the Netherlands (June 17) and Ukraine (June 21) for a place in the knockout round.
