Real Madrid get more reasons to be celebrate this festive period as Bayern Makes Official Declaration Regarding the Transfer of Alphonso Davies
Recent developments from Germany bring good news for Real Madrid, indicating that the club could achieve its primary objective for the upcoming summer.
Amid discussions about whether to secure a central defender in the winter transfer window, Real Madrid remains focused on its medium-term signing objectives. One of the standout targets, potentially the top priority according to the board, is Alphonso Davies. In just four months, the Canadian player wearing the number ’19’ has become Florentino Pérez’s foremost concern in ensuring a generational shift in the left-back position.
The likelihood of his transfer may have increased with the latest development from Germany. BILD, Bayern Munich’s primary newspaper, has identified four players who could potentially leave Allianz Arena in the summer of 2024, and among them is Alphonso Davies. The designation of the North American full-back as transferable makes the prospect of Real Madrid’s approach more viable.
This holds particular significance as Bayern Munich had strongly resisted his transfer since October. Initially valued at 50 million euros due to Davies having only one year left on his contract, the operation’s worth increased to 70 million euros due to the instability in the Bavarian club’s board, aligning with his current market value.
Taking it a step further, despite the increased valuation, the Real Madrid board is actively working to diminish the likelihood of Alphonso Davies opting for a contract renewal. Speculations about the player wearing the ’19’ negotiating an extension seem to have significantly lost momentum. Consequently, the possibility of Real Madrid securing the 23-year-old defender is becoming increasingly plausible.
Should Real Madrid successfully secure the signing of Alphonso Davies, the club would effectively finalize one of its two planned marquee signings for the upcoming summer. The other target is Kylian Mbappé, who could potentially join Santiago Bernabéu as a free agent. Confidence in the Bondy striker has reached historic lows, leading the Valdebebas offices to explore alternatives in the attacking department.
