Florentino Pérez tried to resolve an uncomfortable situation this summer at Real Madrid: the continuity of David Alaba. The white club, aware that the Austrian was not part of Xabi Alonso's plans for the new season, sought to reach a friendly agreement for the termination of his contract.

According to DefensaCentral, the proposal involved paying him half of his pending salary and allowing him to leave for free to another destination. However, the player rejected this alternative, choosing to fulfill his contractual commitment until the end and receive his full wages.

Florentino Pérez did not want David Alaba at Real Madrid

Alaba's decision is seen as an act of perseverance but also of strategy. At 33 years old and after a knee injury that has hampered him in recent seasons, the defender knows that his chances of finding a new competitive European club are limited. His current market value, estimated at 6 million euros by Transfermarkt, reflects the drop in his worth compared to when he shone at Bayern Munich. Nevertheless, a possible path would be to move to Saudi Arabia, where he could secure his last major contract.

For the Madrid board, the defender's refusal has had consequences. If the exit had happened, Madrid would have freed up a high salary slot and a space in defense. Under that scenario, the Bernabéu offices would have hastened the arrival of a new center-back, but Alaba's continuity led to an internal solution. This explains the prominence of young Huijsen, who has excelled with top performances. Additionally, the club seems willing to wait until 2026 to bolster that position, with Konaté as the main target, not forgetting the talents from the Madrid academy.

Beyond the sporting aspect, David Alaba continues to hold weight in the dressing room. He is an admired player with a brilliant career and a character that serves as a role model. His first season at Chamartín was noteworthy, proving his signing was a success. The issue arose later: the serious injury and constant physical difficulties have prevented him from maintaining consistency. Every time he gets minutes, muscular problems reoccur, limiting his participation.

The current scenario does not bode well. With Éder Militao excelling and Huijsen growing with each game, Alaba's space is reduced to a supporting role. Xabi Alonso could give him minutes if he regains some physical form, but it seems very challenging for him to string together full matches.

Florentino Pérez sought a practical resolution: pay to terminate and reorganize the defense. But Alaba's choice has been to persist at Real Madrid at least until June. This situation keeps the debate open about managing veterans in the club and the immediate future of a player who, although admired, is no longer essential in the sporting structure.
