According to the Daily Mail, both Man City and Chelsea appear to be the most likely to sign Bayern Munich defender David Alaba – and the Austrian international could prove to be a significant ‘upgrade‘ on both Oleksandr Zinchenko and Benjamin Mendy.
Alaba, starting 27 Bundesliga matches under Hans-Dieter Flick this season, has been attracting City’s attention as a viable candidate to bolster the left-back position – an area of the pitch where we have been forced to improvise since Pep Guardiola’s arrival.
