David Alaba
33-Year-Old
Real Madrid
La Liga
Nearly fully fit
Alaba (thigh) featured in the pre-season friendly in Austria on Tuesday and said he is nearly at one hundred percent. "I am happy, it is clear. It is my country, I believe that the environment is very good. I am very happy. I am much better, nearly at 100%. I am very happy and 100% ready."
ANALYSIS
Alaba returned well ahead of schedule from his thigh injury and featured in Tuesday's pre-season friendly in his native Austria to confirm his recovery. This is great news for the Merengues since he is an experienced player and new coach Xabi Alonso will likely count on him this season. That said, Alaba has played in the backline in recent seasons but entered the pitch in midfield against the Austrian team, making him a versatile option for the upcoming season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Uncertain future in Madrid
Alaba's future at Real Madrid after the end of the current season is uncertain, according to Diario AS.
ANALYSIS
Alaba is among several players who might leave Real Madrid in the summer, although it's worth mentioning that the potential coaching changes might also affect his future. Alaba's injury issues have been a problem for Real Madrid all season long, and with Eder Militao getting ready to return, plus Real Madrid reportedly targeting a new center-back in the summer, Alaba might end up being an odd man out once it's all said and done.
