Fans Bring Out Chairs to Honor David Alaba in Emotional Bernabéu Farewell
Real Madrid defender David Alaba was given an emotional send-off by fans at the Santiago Bernabéu during his final home match for the club.

Alaba, aged 33, will leave the club at the end of the 2025-26 season when his contract expires. He has made more than 130 appearances for Real Madrid across five years and collected 11 major trophies, including two La Liga titles and two Champions Leagues.
The chair tribute stems from Alaba spontaneously grabbing and waving a stadium seat in wild celebration during that memorable 2022 night at the Bernabéu, turning the gesture into one of his most recognizable moments with the club.
