Real Madrid have been targeting a move for Canadian left-back Alphonso Davies throughout the summer transfer window.
Identified as an ideal long-term solution for the left-back position, Davies was seen as a key piece in bolstering the defensive line at the Santiago Bernabeu.
However, despite their persistent efforts, Madrid have struggled to reach an agreement with Bayern Munich, who have remained firm in their stance.
Real Madrid may make a final attempt to sign Davies
A recent report from Jorge Picon and Rodra P (h/t Madrid Xtra) has offered an update on Real Madrid’s pursuit of Davies, suggesting the club may make a final attempt to sign the Canadian.
Madrid were initially prepared to pay a transfer fee of close to €30 million to bring Davies to Valdebebas this season.
However, Bayern’s reluctance to part ways with the player has complicated matters, leading Madrid to explore other options.
With one week left in the transfer window, the Spanish giants are now studying the possibility of making one final offer, despite the official stance that no further signings are expected.
The ongoing uncertainty has resulted in Real Madrid placing more trust in their current left-back options. Carlo Ancelotti’s confidence in Ferland Mendy, combined with the emergence of Fran García, has led the club to reassess its immediate needs.
However, the prospect of signing Davies remains appealing, and Madrid may yet decide to push for a deal before the deadline.
As the transfer window draws to a close, Real Madrid’s final decision on Davies will be crucial.
Whether Bayern can be convinced to let go of their star defender or if Madrid will wait until next year for a free transfer remains to be seen.
