David Alaba’s possible departure from FC Bayern has been causing a stir for months. While the German record champion is fighting for an extension with his top star (contract until 2021), the competition is already in position. FC Bayern
has been fighting for an extension of David Alaba’s contract for months. However, a breakthrough in the negotiations is still not foreseeable. Because the Austrian national player may already know what his future looks like?
The Spanish portal “Don Balon” speculates that David Alaba is hoping to switch to Real Madrid – free of charge. Accordingly, the defensive player could terminate his contract in Munich (term until 2021) and then leave the record champion.
For FC Bayern, a free departure from David Alaba would be something like the Super-GAU. In recent weeks, the Munich people had not explicitly stressed in vain that they absolutely wanted to prevent this scenario. Opposite the “Bild”, Bavarian President Herbert Hainer commented on contract poker between the German record champion and David Alaba.
“There is currently no new stand beyond what was last read. We’ve all always said that we value him so much. He is an icon of FC Bayern. He has been with the club for ten years – since his youth. Of course, we would like to keep it,” says Hainer. “At the end of the day,” however, it was the decision of the Austrian. “We made him a fair and competitive offer. It’s up to him to accept it.”
If Alaba does not renew its contract ending in 2021, the Munich authorities have apparently taken precautions. “Of course, we plan with all scenarios and also have a Plan B. And a Plan C if we end up disagreeing with players.”
