Alphonso Davies Breaks His Silence: Chooses Another Club, Neither Bayern Munich nor Real Madrid
Alphonso Davies is one of Real Madrid’s declared targets in the transfer market, but the White Club could miss out on his signing after so much effort.
Florentino Pérez is closely monitoring the transfer market as the 23/24 season comes to a close. At Valdebebas, they are clear about which players they want to bring into the Santiago Bernabéu locker room, but not all operations come to fruition. This isn’t the feeling they had with Alphonso Davies… until now.
Because the addition of the Canadian ’19’ from Bayern Munich has always been surrounded by certain doubts: the Bavarian decision-makers are unwilling to let him go so easily and have presented several contract renewal offers. Although the proposed salaries in each contract increased, the North American defender has maintained his refusal.
In Germany, they have believed that discussions with Real Madrid have been decisive and assert that Davies is convinced to play with the white jersey for the 24/25 season. But it has been the full-back himself who may have undermined his path to the Santiago Bernabéu. In a recent interview, Davies acknowledges that he would choose the Premier League over La Liga… although it wasn’t in the context of transfers.
Countdown He also didn’t hesitate to refer to Chelsea as a team that accompanied him during his childhood, something that could undoubtedly influence him when it comes to changing his footballing direction at the elite level. This isn’t the first time that the club chaired by Todd Boehly has appeared in the Davies saga: Florentino Pérez is keeping an eye on them.
Although his statements to ESPN may raise some doubts, the Real Madrid board clings to the ‘agreements’ reached with the Canadian defender’s entourage to date. It remains positive that he hasn’t renewed with Bayern Munich, a pressure tactic for the Munich executives to sit down with the Madrid decision-makers to negotiate a transfer for the upcoming summer.
