As per the recent signs, the Canadian may move to Real Madrid in the summer. The agreement feels like a page out of Kylian Mbappe’s book, who has previously agreed to sign with the Spanish club only to back out at the last moment. The fans of the Spanish club have to prepare for another long saga in the summer for another star signing.
Alphonso Davies’ contract expires in 2025
The Canadian joined Bayern Munich from Vancouver Whitecaps FC in 2019. He was impressive straight out of the gate, which helped him earn a five-year extension at the club in April 2020. Davies’ current contract at the club expires in 2025 which puts him in the driving seat in negotiations in the summer of 2024.

Davies has made 177 appearances for the German club and has contributed to 36 goal contributions. These stats are impressive considering the full-back is only 23 years old. He has spent five years in Germany, during which he has won five German titles and one UCL. The summer of 2024 feels like the right time to move on to a different challenge.

Davies has refused multiple attempts from Bayern Munich to renew his deal as he looks to become the highest-paid player in the squad. As per some German reports, Davies is demanding around €13 million per season, which is out of the question for the German club. Bayern Munich doesn’t want to destabilize the current wage structure at the club, which might push the fullback out of the club.
