Injured since December 2023, David Alaba is about to make his comeback on the pitch. The Austrian international defender will be Carlo Ancelotti’s top recruit for the second half of the season.
David Alaba is about to make his return to the pitch after a long absence due to a serious knee injury. The news comes as a relief to Real Madrid and their coach Carlo Ancelotti. According to information relayed by Marca, the Austrian defender will be present for the resumption of collective training scheduled for Monday 30 December 2024. After a year of rehabilitation, his return marks a crucial stage in his career. The club’s fans and his team-mates are delighted to have a player of his calibre back.

Indeed, Alaba’s presence is all the more significant for Real Madrid, who are facing some notable absences. Dani Carvajal and Éder Militão are also out with knee injuries and will miss the rest of the season. Against this backdrop, the return of an experienced player like Alaba is essential to strengthen the team. The former Bayern Munich player has accumulated a wealth of experience at the highest level. His ability to play in several positions and his leadership on the pitch will be invaluable assets for Real Madrid over the coming weeks. Ancelotti will be able to count on him to stabilise the defence alongside Antonio Rudiger.
According to the latest reports, if Alaba responds favourably to training tomorrow (Monday 30 December), he could already be included in the squad for the trip to Valencia on 03 January. This is a late match on matchday 12 of LaLiga, and if Carlo Ancelotti’s men win, they could be in the driving seat in LaLiga.
