Alaba's comeback is approaching: Real Madrid hopes for a quick return!

Good news for fans of Real Madrid and the Austrian national team: David Alaba, who only recently recovered from a knee injury, could soon be back on the pitch. The 32-year-old also suffered an adductor injury in his left leg, which put him out of action again around a week ago. The reported outage duration was initially two to three weeks. But Real coach Carlo Ancelotti expressed optimism: He hopes for Alaba to make a comeback in the second leg against Manchester City. This will take place next Wednesday, which could represent a crucial reinforcement for the Madrilenians, especially given the current injury concerns in defense. Last game, the Royals had to do without several regular players, including Alaba and Antonio Rüdiger, both of whom are important defensive players laola1.at reported.

Ancelotti's strong words after the victory
