The 111-time Austria international has spent the last five seasons in Madrid, having joined on a free transfer after 10 trophy-laden seasons in the Bayern Munich first team.

The 33-year-old is expected to leave Madrid this summer, his contract expiring on June 30, following a tough three years of fitness struggles after a torn cruciate ligament (ACL) in December 2023.

Despite his injury troubles, Alaba’s experience, trophy cabinet and versatility are attractive characteristics for the Bianconeri. Alaba has 10 Bundesliga titles to his name, four Champions League titles, six DFB Pokal trophies, three German Super Cup wins, two LaLiga titles, a Copa del Rey, a Supercopa de Espana, three UEFA Super Cups and three Club World Cups.
