MARCA reports commitment perfectly
MADRID / MUNICH. Have nails been made with heads in secret? How the usually well-informed sports newspaper MARCA reports late on Monday evening and will headline in its print edition on Tuesday David Alaba as Real Madrid’s first commitment for the 2021/22 season.
The Austrian central defender would come to Los Blancos on a free transfer, as his contract with FC Bayern Munich expires on June 30 and an extension has finally failed since autumn. Due to this fact, Alaba and its management, led by consultant Pini Zahavi, can officially start direct negotiations with interested associations from January 1, without their current employer having to be involved.
Report: contract until 2025, eleven million euros salary
Now the apparent agreement with Real. According to reports, the left-footer, who will turn 29 at the end of June and can also be used on the left side of defense as well as in the central midfield, will be bound by the 13-time Champions League triumphator by 2025. Alaba is expected to earn around eleven million euros per year (net) – that would be around two million less than what is supposedly required. In the presence of a doctor from Real, it is said that he has already passed the medical check.
What does that mean for the Ramos cause?
Against the background of this news, the exciting question arises: What does this mean for the Sergio Ramos case? The 34-year-old captain’s contract expires at the end of the season, and an extension that has been in the making for months has not yet come about. Should Alaba replace the defense legend one-on-one in the event of an obligation? Or complement it so that it doesn’t really have anything to do with Ramos? Even if the talks between Real and Ramos are anything but smooth, it seems difficult to imagine the leader saying goodbye. However: That was also what Cristiano Ronaldo thought in 2018 before he joined Juventus.
According to media reports, Paris Saint-Germain, Liverpool FC, Manchester City and Chelsea FC have also expressed interest in working with Alaba. Spain and Real in particular were always considered to be the absolute dream of the two-time triple winner. Wish fulfilled?
