Wizkid and David Alaba: Austrian captain teams up with Afrobeats star at Rolling Loud

Austrian professional footballer David Olatukunbo Alaba is back on the trending list on social media.

Alaba is enjoying his vacation ahead of a return to training for preseason action with La Liga giants Real Madrid.

The 31-year-old  defender rose to the top of the trend following his latest social media post.

Alaba posted several photos on his official Instagram account of his vacation.

Along with the photos was a message that said, "Rolling Loud was fun."

His sister, Rose Mary Alaba, said in the comments, "Caaaallmmmm down Ma g. Relaaxxx."

In the post, Alaba is spotted with Nigerian singer and songwriter Ayodeji Ibrahim Balogun, known professionally as Wizkid.

Wizkid was one of the top performers at the Rolling Loud edition in Munchen, Germany, and Alaba was present.

Alaba, born to a Nigerian Father in Vienna, Austria, continues to connect with his roots.

Alaba earlier went viral on social media after a meeting with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in Paris.

He has expressed interest in reconnecting with his Nigerian roots through several efforts in development.

He gifted President Tinubu a Real Madrid jersey and posed for pictures with the Nigerian entourage in France.

A state-of-the-art biodegradable toilet facility was presented by David Alaba's charity last year to the Ogere Remo community in Ogun State. 

According to sources, he intends to construct a football training facility in Nigeria.

The Real Madrid defender has recently been infused with Nigerian culture, as has his sister Rose Mary Alaba, who recently was spotted in Lagos for a video shoot.
