Bayern Munich defender David Alaba has finally made a decision on his future after agreeing a five-year deal with Real Madrid, say reports. 

The 28-year-old will leave the German champions at the end of the season as a free agent when his contract expires.

He has been linked with several of European football’s top clubs, but Sky Germany believes Madrid have won the race.

The Spanish giants have handed Alaba a deal until 2026 at the Bernabeu, which should be signed off and officially confirmed soon. 

He has continued to play a key role for Hansi Flick’s side this season, scoring twice in 41 appearances in all competitions.
