The cruciate ligament injury of full-back Alphonso Davies from FC Bayern leads to further discussions away from the sporting loss. After the advisor of the professional initially levied allegations against Canada’s coach Jesse Marsch, Munich’s CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen also demanded “a complete clarification of the processes” and even threatened legal steps. When asked by transfer market, the Canadian association now commented on the allegations from Germany.
“We have further examined the circumstances of the medical care of Alphonso Davies. Medical documents confirm compliance with treatment regulations. Communication protocols show that our medical staff has always kept FC Bayern Munich up to date throughout the competition,” Canada Soccer said to Transfermarkt.us. On Friday, “FC Bayern Munich was again spoken to provide them with context and details and clear out any misunderstandings. We all concentrate on supporting Alphonso in the coming months.”
Davies had already injured the Concacaf Nation League against the United States in the early minutes. At first you did not go out of a heavy injury, the 24-year-old traveled back to Munich. Only there was the cruciate ligament tear in the right knee discovered. This caused great trouble at Bayern. “From our point of view, sending an obviously injured player with a battered knee without well-founded medical clarification to a twelve-hour intercontinental flight is grossly negligent and a clear violation of the medical duty of care,” complained Dreesen.
The Munich team is outraged that the recently strong outer rail player was set up at all. “Overall, the use of Davies, who had muscular complaints before the game, is in no way understandable in a sporty, insignificant game,” said Dreesen. It is particularly bitter for Bayern that in addition to Davies in the upcoming games in the fight for the championship and the Champions League, the also injured defender Min-Jae Kim and Dayot Upamecano will also be.
