Fit again? Alaba is in the Real squad against Bayern

Surprise in the Real Madrid squad ahead of the Champions League semi-final against FC Bayern on Tuesday (9pm): David Alaba is in the squad for the first leg in Munich. Is the ÖFB star fit again?

Alaba is only traveling with the team to his old home as support. The Viennese played for Bayern's professional squad for eleven years and made over 400 appearances for the German record champions.

According to Spanish media reports, coach Carlo Ancelotti wants to have all of his players in Munich.

In addition to Alaba, the suspended Dani Carvajal and goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois, who is also injured with a cruciate ligament rupture, will also be in the squad.
