Barcelona’s international sporting director Ariedo Braida was at Bayern Munich’s 0-0 draw with Borussia Dortmund to watch David Alaba, according to Bild, via Football Espana.
Luis Enrique’s side are reportedly tracking a number of players across Europe, but it is Alaba who features highest on their list.

Of players to have started at least three matches in the Champions League this season, only three have a better pass success rate than Alaba (93.9%).
