Veteran Real Madrid defender David Alaba is reportedly on his way out of the Bernabeu this summer. Despite a successful spell since his 2021 arrival, marked by nine trophies, Alaba has been increasingly sidelined by injuries, leading to him no longer being a guaranteed starter when fit. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano suggests Alaba has decided to leave, with several clubs already making inquiries about the soon-to-be free agent. This development comes as Real Madrid faces potential squad changes, with other players' contracts also nearing their end. The departure of the 33-year-old, who has only managed four starts this season, could free up resources for Los Blancos as they plan for the future.
In other news, Coventry City has already secured their first transfer target following their promotion to the Premier League. Manager Frank Lampard has confirmed that the club has an agreement in place to sign midfielder Frank Onyeka permanently from Brentford. Onyeka was on loan at Coventry and his deal included an obligation to buy should they achieve promotion. He has been a key player in their successful campaign, and his permanent arrival is seen as a significant boost as the club prepares for life back in the top flight after a 25-year absence. The move signifies Coventry's ambition to strengthen their squad for the upcoming Premier League season, with further signings expected as the summer transfer window approaches.
