David Alaba
Real Madrid’s defense is set to receive a significant boost with the return of David Alaba after a year-long absence due to injury.
Coach Carlo Ancelotti has likened Alaba’s return to that of a new signing, highlighting the Austrian’s importance to the team. However, the right-back position continues to be a point of contention.
While there has been discussion about deploying Ferland Mendy at right-back, especially given his current form, there’s no clear consensus or fan reaction documented on this strategy.
Fans and analysts alike are keen on seeing a dedicated right-back solution, reflecting broader discussions on squad management and player positioning at Real Madrid.
Meanwhile, the team’s recent performance, including a victory in the Champions League final against Borussia Dortmund, underscores the urgency to solidify their defensive strategy.
