Bayern Frustration: Dramatic Turn in Negotiations with Davies and Real Madrid
As the clock ticks away, Real Madrid stands firm in its summer goals, creating an exciting prospect for the upcoming season. While Carlo Ancelotti remains focused on the current season amidst a wave of injuries, Florentino Pérez and José Ángel Sánchez are already planning for the 2024-2025 season, extending beyond targets like Erling Haaland or Kylian Mbappé.
Focus on Alphonso Davies: All eyes are on Alphonso Davies, a prime target for Real Madrid, promising a significant boost to Carlo Ancelotti’s squad. Davies’ contract with Bayern Munich expires in June 2025, leaving the German giants in a challenging position.
Contractual Crossroads: Bayern Munich increasingly acknowledges the difficulty of retaining the left-back, especially after Davies rejected a contract renewal offer of 4 seasons with a salary close to 8 million euros net. This figure approaches the Germans’ set limit for the deal.
Market Move: Facing this dilemma, the German club’s leadership is becoming assertive, officially placing Davies on the market to trigger a bidding war among potential suitors, potentially impacting Real Madrid negatively.
