Lazio is moving forward to sign David Alaba, the 34-year-old Austrian defender who is currently a free agent after leaving Real Madrid. Discussions have progressed in recent days, and the player could soon sign if both parties reach a salary agreement.

Alaba ended his contract with Real Madrid on June 30 and has been able to join any team without a transfer fee since then. The main economic point of negotiation would be a salary close to 3 million euros per season.

Lazio Accelerates for David Alaba

Lazio remains active despite the close of the Serie A transfer window. Sporting director Angelo Fabiani left three spots open in the squad precisely to enter the free agent market if an opportunity that fits the team's needs arises.

Defense is one of the positions the club aims to reinforce. The departures of Alessio Romagnoli and Mario Gila have reduced options available to Gennaro Gattuso, leading the sporting direction to consider free agent players.

In this scenario, David Alaba emerges. Negotiations are reportedly at an advanced stage in Italy, although the salary aspect still needs to be resolved before the transfer can be finalized.

During his last season in Madrid, the Austrian played only 16 games. Physical issues limited his playing time, a factor that Lazio must consider alongside the financial terms before any agreement is formalized.

Alaba Has More Options Besides Lazio

The Italian club is not the only one inquiring about the player. Roma has also recently made contact, while Manchester United and FC Barcelona have been linked to his situation since he became a free agent.

The advantage for any interested party is that there is no transfer fee. Alaba ended his relationship with Real Madrid after five seasons, playing 131 official matches and winning 11 titles.

His experience includes over a decade at Bayern Munich before moving to Spain in 2021. He can play as a center-back and left-back, positions where he has accumulated playing time throughout his career.

Lazio now needs to decide how far they are willing to go to cover his salary. The requested wage, around 3 million euros annually, is the main condition of a transfer that does not involve a transfer fee.

The upcoming discussions may be decisive. If Lazio and David Alaba can come closer on the financial terms, the Italian club can promptly complete the signing since he is a free agent; otherwise, Roma and the other interested teams will have room to enter the operation.
