Real Madrid Will Have an Unexpected 'Signing' in the Copa Final, It's Not Mendy

After their narrow victory against Getafe in LaLiga, Real Madrid is preparing for the Copa del Rey. After several intense and exciting matches, Real Madrid will face Barcelona in the grand final. Looking ahead to this important match, Real Madrid has received the news of the presence of a star who could be of great help.

While Ferland Mendy is still injured, Real Madrid will be able to count on David Alaba for this match. With his situation far from serious, Alaba will be able to travel to Seville without problems if he doesn't suffer a setback. His presence would be a great support for a defense that, throughout the season, has been losing its characteristic solidity.

Although Alaba usually plays as a center-back, Ancelotti has deployed him in crucial matches as a left-back. Performing well during these matches, it can't be ruled out that we might see Alaba defending the left flank.

Help for Real Madrid

Suffering a serious injury that kept him off the field for a full year, Alaba managed to return this season. While his return has been gradual, Alaba has managed to significantly improve his level as the matches have progressed. Despite being far from the level that brought him to Real Madrid, his performance has been quite solid.

That's why for the Copa del Rey final, his presence could be of great help for a Real Madrid that seeks to defeat Barcelona. Having been surpassed in their two previous encounters by the "culés," Alaba's presence could change this.

Although his position or presence in the starting eleven remains a mystery, Alaba's recovery is a relief for Carlo Ancelotti. In a season marked by injuries, it is always important to have some stars back.

The Desired Outcome for the Copa del Rey

Preparing the final details for the Copa del Rey final, Real Madrid is ready to shatter all of Barcelona's hopes. Similarly, this match could be crucial for an Alaba who would have the opportunity to reconnect with his best version.
