Real Madrid has officially announced on their website that Austrian centre-back David Alaba will leave the club. The decision comes as both parties have mutually agreed to terminate his contract, allowing the experienced defender to enter the transfer market as a free agent.
Alaba’s departure marks the end of his tenure at Madrid, during which he contributed to the club’s successes, including triumphs in La Liga and the Champions League.
This announcement serves as a significant opportunity for Europe’s top clubs, as Alaba, despite a lengthy injury recovery that limited him to 15 appearances this season without any goal contributions, remains a highly sought-after player due to his extensive experience and leadership on the field.
Arbeloa responded to the question of whether he will join José Mourinho’s coaching staff at Real.
