For several months, it looked like Alphonso Davies was going to join Real Madrid no matter what happened in July. However, with Bayern Munich having made considerable progress, this prospect is now receding.
Sporting director Max Eberl confirmed talks with Davies this week, while Vincent Kompany spoke about the importance of his name in his plans. SkySports DE journalist Florian Plettenberg said earlier this week that Davies was close to signing a new lease with Bayern, and notes that Eberl will conclude it this week, although there are still some details to be ironed out.
Davies will not go to Real
This lines up with Diario AS, who say that Davies appears to be moving further and further away from Real Madrid, and that the transfer saga is close to being resolved. Los Blancos have reportedly agreed a deal with Davies in March 2024, but it appears the Canadian will accept Bayern’s offer.
The 23-year-old left-back remaining in Bavaria would leave Los Blancos in an interesting situation. Ferland Mendy has extended his contract, while Fran Garcia is tied up until 2026. However, Real Madrid have been looking for a new long-term answer in the position for some time, as Mendy approaches his thirties.
