Reliable journalists Christian Falk and Fabrizio Romano have confirmed that Real Madrid have agreed a deal to sign David Alaba as a free agent this summer.
The two reporters have released that Real Madrid were favourites to sign the Bayern Munch player and have now completed the race to get his signature.
Fabrizio reveals how it has always been Alaba’s dream to play for Real Madrid so the deal has been done since early January with the Austrian defender only free to talk to clubs since January first. Real Madrid really worked fast on this one.
David Alaba’s dream was always to play for Real Madrid. The pre-contract is ‘almost ready’ and agreed since the first days of January, when Real were leading the race. #LFC and #PSG made their bid in December. ⚪️
He’ll join Real as a free agent.

Marca: Alaba Deal with @realmadrid is done (4 years contract)
— Christian Falk (@cfbayern) January 18, 2021
The 28 year old currently has a market value of £58m according to Transfermarkt making him an absolute steal for Los Blancos especially if veteran defender Sergio Ramos is really leaving this summer as reported.
Do you think Alaba will be a good fit at Real Madrid or will he even start for them if Ramos doesn’t leave?
