First team training
David Alaba’s comeback is getting closer and closer
David Alaba has returned to team training at Real Madrid after a long injury layoff. Coach Carlo Ancelotti announced that the ÖFB team player will not return to the pitch until 2025.
"Alaba's return to training has given us all great encouragement," said a delighted Ancelotti. However, the hoped-for quick return to the squad has yet to materialize. "He needs another month, the whole of December, to get really fit. He will continue to work individually and will gradually be integrated into the team," explained the 65-year-old Italian at the press conference ahead of Saturday's game against Girona.
Alaba was joined in team training on Friday by Vinicius Jr. who has been struggling recently. Alaba has been working individually on the pitch since the end of September and has now trained with his colleagues again for the first time.
The 32-year-old has been out injured since December 18, 2023 due to a cruciate ligament rupture. Now the long period of suffering will soon come to an end.
Real Madrid face Girona away on matchday 16 of La Liga. Atalanta Bergamo will follow in the Champions League next Tuesday.
