The player in question has spent the past year battling recurring injury setbacks\u2014an initial major knee issue, followed by another surgical intervention just months after returning to training. These unfortunate developments have sparked questions behind the scenes about long-term expectations.<\/p>\n

According to a report from AS<\/em>, Real Madrid have no current plans to extend the contract of Austrian defender David Alaba, whose deal runs until 2026. Unlike teammates Thibaut Courtois and Antonio R\u00fcdiger\u2014both of whom are reportedly set for renewals\u2014Alaba appears to have fallen out of the club\u2019s long-term plans.<\/p>\n

The decision, it seems, is influenced by both sporting and financial considerations. With a reported salary of \u20ac19.5 million per season, and his position in the squad now behind the likes of Dean Huijsen and emerging talent Ra\u00fal Asencio, the justification for an extension has weakened.<\/p>\n

Although Alaba has traveled to the United States with the squad for the FIFA Club World Cup, there is still no confirmed timeline for his return to competitive action. What remains unclear is whether Real Madrid will seek an early exit for the defender this summer\u2014or simply allow his contract to run its course.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
