The end of the tunnel is not far away. We can even say that David Alaba is starting to see the light. The Real Madrid defender should apply for the competition in mid-January, said Carlo Ancelotti, Saturday at a press conference on the eve of the reception of Sevilla FC (18th day of the Spanish Championship).
The Austrian international has disappeared from circulation for more than a year, victim of a rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee, on December 17, 2023 during a success for Real Madrid against Villarreal (4-1). This serious injury deprived the 32-year-old of Euro 2024.
Mendy returns
Ferland Mendy should be operational this weekend, said Carlo Ancelotti. The French left-back recovered from a muscular problem in his right quadriceps, contracted on December 7 against Girona (3-0).
