Spanish club Real Madrid is currently linked to the possibility of signing Alphonso Davies, the 23-year-old German player from Bayern Munich.
Real Madrid is seeking to strengthen its ranks during the current summer transfer period, and has already succeeded in concluding a contract deal with Frenchman Kylian Mbappe after the expiration of his contract with Paris Saint-Germain.
According to a report by the Spanish newspaper “AS”, the recent changes in Bayern Munich’s strategy regarding Alphonso Davies have raised concerns within Real Madrid, prompting the Spanish club to consider making an urgent decision.
Bayern Munich intended to have Davies stay until the end of his contract in June 2025, and offered him a renewal of his contract with a salary of 14 million euros per year, but Davies rejected these offers.
Accordingly, Bayern Munich decided to offer Davies for sale during the current summer transfer period rather than risk his departure on a free transfer at the end of his contract. The initial price for selling the player was set at 50 million euros.
These developments have disrupted Real Madrid’s plans, which intended to sign Davies in a manner similar to the Mbappe deal, which would mean completing his contract with Bayern Munich and giving him a bonus for his signing. Now, Real Madrid’s leaders face an urgent decision, as more money was not planned to be spent on new signings, but there is a risk of missing out on a player who has long been a target for the club.
