Shock move to Mexico? Club América target former Real Madrid star David Alaba
David Alaba could soon embark on an unexpected chapter in Latin America as a free agent.
Details: According to reports from The Touchline, Mexican powerhouses Club América are seriously considering a high-profile move to sign David Alaba. The Austrian defender has been unattached since leaving Real Madrid at the end of last season and is actively assessing ambitious projects to prolong his illustrious playing career.
Despite entering the twilight of his career, the 34-year-old center-back has completely ruled out retirement for the time being. Alaba feels in peak physical condition and is determined to compete at a high level across domestic and international fronts.
Club América view the multi-time Champions League winner as a transformative defensive acquisition capable of providing elite leadership, tactical versatility, and invaluable championship pedigree to their squad.
It is worth noting that according to Transfermarkt, the 34-year-old Austrian defender's current market value stands at €3 million.
