DAVID ALABA
Defender · Udinese · Serie A
“A ball-playing defender who builds attacks from the back with intelligence and composure.”
GoalPost verdict
GoalPost score (GPS)
GoalPost read
D. Alaba still carries value as a veteran centre back with proven recent form at Real Madrid, but his case is softened by age profile and the fact he is not a guaranteed starter. He remains useful, not assured.

Analysis overview
Alaba operates as a centre-back who initiates play rather than merely defending it. He reads space early, steps into midfield pockets to receive and carry the ball forward, and uses his positioning to compress opponents while remaining available for short passing exchanges. His game is built on technical security and progressive intent, turning defence into the first phase of attack.
