Real Madrid on Wednesday, officially unveiled David Alaba, after the defender passed his medical.
The Nigeria born Austrian was handed Sergio Ramos’ old number 4 jersey.
Alaba signed for Los Blancos on a free transfer in May, after his Bayern Munich contract expired.

‘Hello everyone, thank you very much for the warm welcome. It’s a great day in my career, I’m very excited for it.
‘I’m very proud and honoured to wear this white jersey of Real Madrid. For sure I will give everything [so] we can be very successful together. Vamos! Hala Madrid!’
