Mundo Deportivo journalist Miguel Rico provides a short update on the Austria international and his chances of signing for Barcelona as a free agent next summer.
Regarding the 28-year-old, Rico states he is a ‘great’ left-back and a ‘good’ central defender. However, Alaba cannot join the Spanish giants ‘not even [for] free’ because it’s ‘impossible’ for them to meet his salary demands.
It’s claimed the two-time Champions League winner with Bayern is asking for a net salary of €8m per season and these figures, as of today, are ‘unpayable’ for the Catalan club.
