"I think he will start playing [training] matches next week," Real Madrid head coach Carlo Ancelotti said. "Around January 20 he will be able to play matches. These will help us as well."
David Alaba has returned to the Real Madrid squad ahead of the Spanish Supercopa semifinal against Mallorca following a year-long layoff due to injury, the club announced on Tuesday.
The defender suffered an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear in his left leg, as well as damage to the meniscus, in December 2023 and is yet to make his competitive return for Real Madrid.
Alaba signed with Real Madrid from Bayern Munich in 2021 and went on to win the Champions League with the side in his first season when Los Blancos beat Liverpool in the final.
