Bayern Munich’s CEO, Jan-Christian Dreesen, has explicitly stated that the club did not discuss Alphonso Davies during their recent meeting with Real Madrid. In a conversation with Kicker, Dreesen emphasized the club’s policy of not focusing on individual players in such discussions, asserting, “We never talk about individual players in this context and nothing has changed.”
Background on Davies’ Situation
The clarification comes amidst speculation about Davies’ future at Bayern Munich. Recent reports have linked the Canadian left-back with a potential move to Real Madrid. Notably, on March 28, there were claims that Davies was set to leave Bayern due to interest from the Spanish giants. This was further complicated by criticisms from Davies’ agent regarding Bayern’s handling of contract negotiations.
Additionally, Davies faced a suspension that saw him miss the crucial Champions League return leg against Arsenal on April 9, 2024. Despite these challenges, earlier in March, Bayern’s director had indicated positive progress in talks regarding a new deal for Davies.
Current Status at Bayern
As of now, Alphonso Davies remains a key player for Bayern Munich. His dynamic style of play and ability to perform both defensive and offensive duties make him a valuable asset to the team. The club’s recent statements suggest a keen interest in retaining his services, despite the swirling transfer rumours.
