Bayern Munich president Herbert Hainer has stated the club have little interest in selling Alphonso Davies amid transfer interest from European rivals Real Madrid.
Having made a name for himself as a teen prodigy in Major League Soccer with Vancouver Whitecaps, Davies made the switch to Europe with Bayern in January 2019 and has been a key player almost ever since – his breakout 2019/20 season coincided with Champions League glory.
Even at the age of just 23, Ghanaian-born Davies, whose family emigrated to Canada when he was five-years-old, can already lay claim to being arguably the greatest Canadian player of all time.
90min reported last month that Bayern are keen to secure Davies to a new long-term contract. Real Madrid have been monitoring the progress of his talks with the German giants, while Chelsea and Manchester City are also being kept informed of his situation.
Bayern are determined not to lose him, with Hainer telling reporters in Munich just that.
“He’s with us under contract until June 2025, he’s one of the best full-backs in the world. Of course we want to keep Davies and I hope he also wants to stay,” the president explained.
