Real Madrid inform Liverpool of Ibrahima Konate transfer plan ahead of contract expiry

Substitute option Tuesday Alaba (calf) is on the bench for Tuesday's meeting with Manchester City in the second leg of the UCL round of 16.

Impact Alaba was in and out of the initial lineup before getting hurt, but he's now back in the rotation with Dean Huijsen and Antonio Rudiger while Raul Asencio (neck) and Eder Militao (hamstring) are sidelined. The Austrian will look to be a source of defensive stats as soon as he's ready to see meaningful action.

Makes squad list Alaba (calf) is in the squad list for Tuesday's second leg against Manchester City in the Champions League, the club posted.

Impact Alaba has recovered from the calf injury that kept him sidelined for the last three games across all competitions and is back as an option for Tuesday's second leg against Manchester City in the Champions League. The Austrian veteran is still expected to continue in a rotational role for the Merengues moving forward. That said, he could see minutes off the bench in this one since Raul Asencio (neck) is still out due to an injury, which could open the door for Alaba to log a bigger share of playing time.

Ruled out for time being Alaba (calf) remains in treatment and is ruled out for the time being, according to coach Alvaro Arbeloa, per AS. "Alaba won't be available, that's for sure."

Impact Alaba picked up a calf injury in the last match against Getafe and will be sidelined for now as he continues treatment to recover from the issue. This is a tough break for the Merengues, who are already thin at the back due to injuries and suspensions, and Alaba was expected to play a key role during this stretch. That said, Raul Asencio (neck) has returned to full training with the squad and is likely to be back in the mix moving forward while holding the starting spot in central defense.

Still in treatment Alaba (calf) appears to be in doubt for Friday's match against Celta Vigo as he remains in treatment with a calf injury, according to Mechlor Ruiz of Tiempo de Juego.

Impact Alaba is still dealing with his calf injury after exiting Monday's match early and is still in treatment, not yet an option for the club. This leaves him in doubt for their match on Saturday, facing Celta Vigo in league play. The major concern is that they could be heading into their UCL game against Manchester on Tuesday with limited depth in the defense, as Raul Asencio (neck) and Eder Militao (hamstring) are still recovering as well.

Subbed off due to overload Alaba was substituted at halftime of Monday's 1-0 defeat against Getafe due to muscle overload, according to coach Alvaro Arbeloa.

Impact Alaba cracked the starting XI for the second time in three matches but his night was cut short after he picked up a muscular overload that forced him off at halftime in Monday's loss to Getafe. The center-back was replaced by Dean Huijsen, who should continue to handle the starting duties when available, but after Huijsen picked up a yellow card and is now suspended for the next match, Real Madrid suddenly find themselves thin at the back if Alaba is sidelined. Aurelien Tchouameni could be pushed into a deeper role again if Alaba is not fit, especially with Raul Asencio (neck) still a doubt, leaving Madrid scrambling for solutions on the defensive line.

Impact Alaba is with the team and an option Sunday, with the defender recovering from a calf injury to earn a spot on the bench. He will hope to remain fit after a four-game absence, as he has only found a few chances for minutes this season while going unused seven times.
