David Alaba, a 34-year-old center-back, is among the options being considered by Union Berlin's transfer market to strengthen their defense after conceding 17 goals in four Bundesliga matches. The Austrian has been unattached since his time at Real Madrid ended and, according to BILD, fits the profile sought by the club during the international break.

David Alaba, an option for Union Berlin

Union Berlin has started the Bundesliga with one point from 12 possible and sits at the bottom of the league table. Mauro Lustrinelli's team has shipped 17 goals in four games, following the 7-0 defeat to Bayern Munich on September 18.

The defensive issues were evident even before the heavy loss in Munich. On September 5, Bayer Leverkusen defeated Union 4-0, while three days earlier, the Berlin team drew 3-3 against Eintracht Frankfurt.

BILD places David Alaba and Jannik Vestergaard, both 34 years old, among the unrestricted center-backs who could fit Horst Heldt's criteria. The priority is to add Bundesliga experience and a player capable of providing leadership during the transition to a four-defender system.

Pay attention to the potential BOMB that could happen at Union Berlin.

BILD reports that the team needs a new leader in defense with Bundesliga experience. The ideal candidate could be David Alaba, who is still a free agent.

David Alaba's Scenario after leaving Real Madrid

David Alaba ended his spell at Real Madrid at the conclusion of the 2025/26 season. The club announced on May 22 the agreement to part ways after five seasons, 131 matches, and 11 titles with the white team.

Since then, the center-back remains unattached and has not signed with another team yet. In early September, he was already linked with other clubs, although his financial demands had hindered some of those possibilities.

His experience in Germany is another aspect explaining Union Berlin's interest. Before joining Real Madrid, Alaba played 281 Bundesliga matches with Bayern Munich, a competition he was familiar with since his development years and where he built a significant part of his professional career.

As of now, there is no formal negotiation between David Alaba and Union Berlin. The name appears as a potential option in the market of unattached players, and the international break offers the club time to evaluate whether to pursue the Austrian or consider other alternatives like Vestergaard.
