Real Madrid have received a major boost as David Alaba made his long-awaited return to full team training today ahead of the club’s upcoming fixtures.
The Austrian defender, who has been sidelined with injury for several weeks, was seen participating fully in drills with his teammates at Valdebebas, sparking optimism among fans and coaching staff alike.
Alaba’s return comes at a crucial time for Carlo Ancelotti’s side, who are preparing for a demanding run of matches across La Liga and the UEFA Champions League. His experience, leadership, and versatility — being able to play both at centre-back and left-back — are expected to strengthen Madrid’s defensive options.
Club sources say Alaba has responded well to rehabilitation and could be available for selection as early as this weekend, pending a final fitness assessment.
With Madrid battling to maintain momentum on multiple fronts, Alaba’s comeback is being hailed as “the perfect reinforcement from within.”
