Opinion: David Alaba could be the next James Milner for Liverpool
Bayern Munich defender David Alaba has been linked with Liverpool in the recent weeks and it would be a superb signing for Jurgen Klopp’s side if they manage to pull it off. The Austrian international will be out of contract at the end of this season and signing a player of his calibre on a free transfer would be a masterstroke from the Reds. They have already signed Thiago from Bayern on a major bargain and they should do everything in their power to land Alaba now. The versatile 28-year-old can play as a centre back, left-back or a defensive midfielder. He would offer Klopp some much-needed depth in multiple defensive positions and he has the quality and experience to improve the side as well. Alaba has won almost every trophy at club level with Bayern Munich and he has nothing to prove ...
