La Liga heavyweights Real Madrid are reportedly ready to fork out up to €45 million to sign Alphonso Davies from Bayern Munich.
According to a report by Spanish outlet Fichajes, Alphonso Davies is a top target for Real Madrid heading into the summer transfer window. And they have set a limit of €45 million to sign the 23-year-old left-back from Bundesliga club Bayern Munich.
Alphonso Davies and his Transformation
Alphonso Davies has come leaps and bounds since joining Bayern Munich from Vancouver Whitecaps in January 2019. A budding winger when he arrived in Germany, he has blossomed into a marauding left-back with blistering pace on his charges into the final third.
The Canadian international has been a pivotal figure for the Bundesliga champions in the last half a decade while winning the treble in the 2019/20 season. He has turned out 180 times thus far for Bayern Munich, chipping in with nine goals and 28 assists. But the 23-year-old faces an uncertain future at the Allianz Arena heading into the summer transfer window.
Davies has entered the final 18 months of his Bayern Munich contract, with talks over a new deal not progressing much. Such a situation has captured the attention of several high-profile clubs across Europe. But his likeliest destination might be Real Madrid, with Los Blancos holding a long-standing interest in him.
Real Madrid Move on the Cards?
Real Madrid might part ways with Ferland Mendy in the summer transfer window. While the French international has been the first-choice right-back for Real Madrid since arriving from Lyon in July 2019, he has blown hot and cold in the last two seasons, with his fitness issues also piling up.
So, Real Madrid will look to replace Mendy with Alphonso Davies, with personal terms not an issue for either party. The latest update has revealed how much the Merengues are willing to offer to secure his services. Real Madrid will pay up to €45 million to sign the 23-year-old left-back.
It will be interesting to see if Bayern Munich will demand more than €45 million to part ways with Davies. But the Canadian international will have 12 months left on his contract in the summer transfer window, and €45 million might be a fair price for his services.
