September 15, 2026Diego Herrera1 мин

Veteran Austrian international David Alaba, currently unattached, may be nearing a return to the Bundesliga. Hamburger SV, grappling with a disastrous start to the season including consecutive 5-0 losses that leave them at the bottom of the league, is reportedly considering signing the 34-year-old defender.

Alaba, formerly of Bayern Munich and Real Madrid, is a free agent and can be signed even with the transfer window closed. Jannik Vestergaard, another player with extensive Bundesliga experience, is also mentioned as a potential alternative for HSV.

Despite a history of injuries, Alaba's salary expectations might pose a challenge for Hamburger SV's financial capabilities. Earlier, Serie A club Lazio had expressed interest in the player, and Club América in Mexico has also been cited as a possible destination.
