Cristiano Ronaldo wants to do a real Madrid favor.

The Portuguese star considers the Austrian defender's signing a priority to strengthen a defence line that has been singled out as the Saudi team's weak spot, especially after a year of landing.

With Joao Felix's recent addition to the attack, the goal now is to balance the team from the defence to faithfully compete in Saudi Arabia's Superliga.

Alabama, 33, is going through a difficult time at Real Madrid. His role has been significantly reduced due to injuries and the appearance of other defenders in Real Madrid's team, reports Telegraph, broadcast Periscope.

Moreover, with the arrival of Xabi Alonso on the bench, the prospect does not seem to be improving for the former player of Bayern Munichu, who is in the last year of his contract.
Contacts have already started in Saudi Arabia to explore a possible departure, profiting from Real Madrid's willingness to negotiate.

The transfer fee will not be high -- around fivem euros -- an affordable figure for a club intended to build a strong project about its best players.

Coach Jorge Jesus approved the transfer, aware that Alabama's experience and leadership would be a key asset.

Now all depends on whether the defender agrees to close his European period and undertake a new challenge in the Middle East under the direction and direct recommendation of his former team partner, Cristiano Ronaldos. /Periscope/
