Real Madrid has been handed a setback as central defender David Alaba continues to struggle with match fitness after picking up an injury. The club released an official update on his condition following tests conducted by their medical team on Tuesday.

The statement from Real Madrid confirmed the issue, stating, “Following tests carried out on our player David Alaba by Real Madrid Medical Services, he has been diagnosed with an adductor injury in his left leg.” The club assured fans that Alaba’s recovery is being closely monitored, as he works to regain full fitness and return to action.

Alaba, who has played a vital role in Real Madrid’s defense since joining from Bayern Munich, has been struggling for match sharpness in recent weeks. Despite this, he was brought on for a few minutes in Madrid’s recent game, which underlined his ongoing battle to regain full fitness after a period of recovery.

This injury is a further setback for Alaba, who had been working to regain his spot in the starting lineup. His experience, leadership, and versatility have been crucial for the team, making his absence a worrying prospect for both Real Madrid and their supporters.

The official statement did not specify a timeline for Alaba’s return, leaving fans uncertain about how long the Austrian international will be sidelined. However, the club’s medical staff will continue to assess his condition as they manage his rehabilitation and recovery.

While Alaba’s absence leaves a gap in the defense, Real Madrid will look to other members of the squad to step up in his place. The club is expected to provide further updates on his progress as more information becomes available, with fans hoping for a quick recovery as the defender works towards full fitness.
