Bayern Munich chief executive Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has revealed that if David Alaba does not sign a contract extension with the club then they will have to consider other options.
The Austrian national team defender’s contract with the recently crowned German champions is due to expire at the end of next season and initial talks over a new contract have reportedly been unsuccessful.
Alaba has drawn links to a number of different players in recent weeks and months, including Inter, Manchester City, Real Madrid and Barcelona.
It has been reported that Alaba does not consider a move to Manchester City to be a priority though due to Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola having plans to play him in defence rather than midfield, where he would like to play.
“We haven’t found a solution for him yet. If a contract renewal won’t be possible, we’ll have to consider other options,” Rummenigge remarked as part of Leroy Sane’s presentation press conference earlier on today.
This season Alaba has made 38 appearances across all competitions to date, in which he scored two goals and provided as many assists.
