He shared how much he had missed the game and expressed his eagerness to contribute to Real Madrid’s success once more. The Austrian defender is optimistic that his performances will reach new heights upon his return.
Though the road to recovery has been long and challenging, Alaba’s resilience and positive mindset have played a key role in his progress. With his return now on the horizon, both fans and teammates are eager to see him back in action, bringing his leadership and defensive prowess to the team’s backline.
