David Alaba chose the right time to leave Bayern for Real Madrid

With his contract ending last season and after spending twelve years at Bayern Munich, David Alaba decided that it was time for a new challenge. The German club tried to keep him as they knew for a fact that losing him would hurt them but in the end, the Austrian had different plans.

Real Madrid: Three players David Alaba helps the most

Real Madrid’s first of two signings this past summer – David Alaba, the second being Eduardo Camavinga – has been an absolute success. I could even go as far as saying that he has been the best signing for any club this season. There is no other player that has had this big of an impact in the position that they play in, and there is no one who has fit in this seamlessly in the first six months of the stint.
