Austria’s football team captain suffered a meniscus tear in the left knee, as his club Real Madrid announced on Tuesday evening. How long the 32-year-old failed has not been forecast. Alaba had only given his comeback in January after over a 13-month break due to a serious injury in his left knee and therefore missed the European Championship 2024, among other things.

Real now run out in the season finale and in the fight for the championship. Antonio Rüdiger will be missing several weeks due to a knee operation and was also closed to six games after his freak out in the cup final. Ferland Mendy is also injured.
Alaba’s new failure is also extremely bad for Ralf Rangnick. His captain will miss the first World Cup qualification games on June 7 in Vienna against Romania and three days later against San Marino. Other key players are also extremely questionable with Marcel Sabitzer (knee) and Xaver Schlager (muscle injury).
