Last Sunday, David Alaba won the most coveted club trophy in the world: the Uefa Champions League.
His team, Bayern Munich defeated Paris St. Germain of France by 1-0 to lift the trophy for the sixth time.
Immediately the game was over, David Alaba went to console Neymar, who was sobbing quietly. It was a wonderful sight to see.
David Alaba was born in Vienna, Austria to a Nigerian father, George Alaba and a Filipino mother, Gina Alaba.
David has a sister, Rose May. In an interview he said she's one of his closest friends.
George Alaba first came to Austria to study Economics at the University of Vienna. However, his passion for music was more than his desire to acquire a degree in Economics so he dropped out of school to pursue his career in music.

Gina Alaba was a former Filipino beauty queen, who'd migrated to Austria to seek greener pastures.
She met George Alaba and the two got married and had two kids.
The Alabas wanted the best for their kids, David and Rose May and allowed them to discover their gifts.
Rose May wanted to pursue a career in music, while David's passion was to become a footballer.
He was enrolled in a football academy in Vienna and it was there scouts of Bayern Munich spotted the talented teenager and brought him over to Germany.

And ever since, David Alaba has been a first team player in the greatest football club in Germany and current Champions of Europe.
David plays mainly as a left full back, but his versatility also makes him perform well as a midfielder.
In his international career, David Alaba opted to play for Austria ahead of Nigeria.

He was at the European Championship in 2016 as Austria's most famous player.
She'd performed at the Austrian Music Awards and is trying to breath through in the Nigerian musical scene.
We wish David and the Alaba family greater success.
