An English news report on Monday revealed the latest developments regarding the potential transfer of Canadian player Alphonso Davies, a full-back for Bayern Munich, to Real Madrid.
According to sources, Real Madrid is determined to sign Davies in the upcoming summer, taking advantage of the fact that there is only one season left on his contract.
However, Bayern Munich has reportedly verbally offered Davies a contract renewal with better terms than what Real Madrid has proposed. This is to prevent being forced to sell him in the upcoming summer or risk losing him for free, similar to the situation with David Alaba in the season after the next.
Sources indicate that if Davies decides to stay in Munich, Real Madrid will explore the option of signing Spanish player Miguel Gutierrez from Girona as an alternative. Gutierrez, a standout performer for Girona this season, could be acquired by Real Madrid for 7 million euros, as they currently hold 50% of his rights.
It has also been confirmed that Manchester City has entered the race to sign Davies in the upcoming summer, and Chelsea is closely monitoring the player's situation.
Furthermore, if Bayern fails to renew Davies' contract, they will be compelled to consider offers from other clubs for the player's potential sale in the summer of 2024.
