The signs are growing that David Alaba will leave FC Bayern for Real Madrid next summer. According to current media reports, FC Barcelona has withdrawn from transfer poker for the Austrian.
It’s an open secret that David Alaba is leaning towards a move to Spain’s La Liga. Real Madrid or FC Barcelona are the only serious options for the 28-year-old defender. According to Spanish media reports, the Catalans have now withdrawn from the competition for Alaba.
Everything points to real
Laut der „Sports World“ Barca are simply unable to meet Alaba’s financial demands. Above all, the salary demands of the defensive all-rounder deter the highly indebted club.
The Catalans want to focus on signing free transfer players this summer. With Memphis Depay (Lyon), Georginio Wijnaldum (Liverpool) and Eric Garcia (Manchester City) three specific players have already been targeted.
In addition, Barcelona would like to use the scarce financial resources they have available to extend the contract with Lionel Messi, who could leave the club in the summer as his contract expires.
With the Barca withdrawal, the way is now clear for Real Madrid. According to matching media reports, Los Blancos have already reached an oral settlement with Alaba. Other interested parties such as Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain only have outsider chances.
