Real Madrid’s left-back position has been the subject of debate for some time, with fans frustrated that he hasn’t received the same investment as other areas of the team.
Real Madrid president Florentino Perez, however, hopes to dramatically remedy this situation.
According Defense CentralBayern Munich left-back Alphonso Davies has confirmed to Real Madrid that he is interested in a transfer.
Davies is under contract until 2025 with Bayern Munich and his agent recently confirmed that negotiations with Bayern over a new contract have stalled. Real Madrid’s idea is to sign him in 2024, Bayern’s last chance to sell Davies unless he gets a new contract.
The Canadian full-back is keen to join Kylian Mbappé, Jude Bellingham and Vinicius Junior, while Real Madrid believe he is one of the key missing pieces in their squad.
The prospect of seeing Davies and Vinicius on the same flank is certainly frightening. It is still possible that this was a bargaining tactic from the Davies side in order to secure a better contract, with Bayern no doubt keen to start negotiations over a new lease in the near future. . Likewise, it would fit into Bayern’s strategy of signing the best young players at an early stage in their careers.
