Alaba’s Bayern contract expires at the end of this season and he will move to the Bernabeu on a free, according to Spanish outlet AS.

The 28-year-old is said to have put pen-to-paper on a four-year £186,000-a-week deal.

Alaba was free to sign a pre-contract agreement this month and he will now complete the transfer in June.

He has already passed a medical in the presence of Real staff.

Liverpool, Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester City all reportedly made contact with Alaba’s agent Pini Zahavi this month.

Barcelona were also keen but reportedly pulled out the race because they cannot afford his wages.

Alaba refused to extend his Bayern contract and will leave after ten years with the German giants.

He has played 22 times in all competitions this season.

The versatile ace has played at left-back, centre-back and centre-midfield in his time at Bayern.

But with Alphonso Davies having burst through as one of the left-back in the world, he has decided to move on.

Alaba has scored 32 times and provided 49 assists for the first team since his arrival at the Allianz.
