David Alaba Possible Comeback for Real Madrid Against RB Salzburg
In about two weeks, 32-year-old David Alaba is planned to play again for Champions League winners Real Madrid.
David Alaba's Comeback Against Las Palmas or Salzburg
"Next week he will start participating in training matches, and around January 20th he could be deployed again," Real coach Carlo Ancelotti explained at a press conference on Thursday. If all goes well, Alaba could make his comeback after a 13-month injury break in the LaLiga home game on January 19th against Las Palmas or three days later against Red Bull Salzburg. The Salzburg team will be visiting the Bernabeu Stadium in the Champions League on January 22nd.
Ancelotti is eagerly awaiting the return of his defensive chief. "The squad is almost complete, and there will be more rotations, especially in defense, as soon as Alaba returns. That's the position we've suffered the most. This will help us," the Italian explained. Alaba tore his cruciate ligament in his left knee on December 17, 2023, and has not played a game since. The Viennese started running training at the end of September, and the ball has been back in play since mid-November.
