Fabrizio Romano, one of the most reliable journalists with respect to player transfers, has been reporting on the move for a long time. On Thursday, the Italian journalist reported that David Alaba has agreed to join Real Madrid and will earn €12 million net salary a season.
Bayern Munich were keen to keep the versatile player at the club, but reports suggest he was not willing to accept their offer. David Alaba hinted at a possible move to Spain earlier this year by saying:
