Alphonso Davies went from being an absolute nobody to one of the most valued full-backs in the football world at FC Bayern. However, it is becoming increasingly clear that the Canadian’s future will not lie in Munich.
The sparrows have been whistling loudly from the rooftops for months that Real Madrid are going full speed ahead to acquire Alphonso Davies from FC Bayern. It was also recently said that negotiations between the German record champions and Davies regarding an extension of the current contract beyond the summer of 2025 would stall because the 23-year-old was making enormous salary demands. Now the TV station “Sky” is revealing more information.
Accordingly, there was recently a “secret meeting” between Bayern’s sports director Christoph Freund and Davies’ advisor Nick Huoseh in Munich. Topic: Davies’ future, which is “more open than ever”.
“Sky” emphasizes again that Davies is demanding a hefty salary update for a long-term extension, but Bayern does not want to grant this and has not always been happy with the left-footed player recently.
Farewell to FC Bayern is getting closer
Therefore, it is said to have decided in principle that Davies will be put on the market in the summer if an agreement is not reached. According to the report, those responsible at Säbener Strasse currently consider this scenario to be the most likely.
The transfer fee is still a hurdle. Real should be willing to pay 40 to 50 million euros, but only offer 35 to 40 million euros to get started. In Munich they are reportedly preparing for difficult negotiations.
There will probably also be negotiations with a replacement for Davies. In any case, the planning is already underway in the background. A hot candidate is probably Theo Hernández from AC Milan. The Frenchman is tied to the top club until the summer of 2026. However, no concrete steps are said to have been taken yet.
