The maximum offer that Real Madrid will make to sign Alphonso Davies

Real Madrid and Bayern Munich are still fighting for Alphonso Davies. The Canadian player can be a free agent in 2025, however, the Bavarian board is reluctant to lose its left-back for free, while the Merengues have set a maximum amount to get him this summer.

The left flank of Real Madrid's defense is an issue that must be taken seriously. Although Ferland Mendy was a great addition to the white club and has managed to earn his place in Carlo Ancelotti's scheme, it is necessary to have a second option, especially in a 2024/25 season that is complex for the team in terms of the number of games.

In addition to this, what will happen with Fran García remains unknown. The 25-year-old Spaniard showed a rather questionable performance last season, so the Merengue board should consider reinforcing that area and the top favorite has always been Davies. The American captain did not have the best campaign with Bayern Munich in 2023/24, but he raised his level in the Copa America and remains a remarkable player at his young age. The problem is that Bayern refuse to let him go.

Real Madrid will not pay more than €35M for Davies

Real Madrid president Florentino Perez refuses to give in to the Bavarian board. Although he wants the player, he is not willing to pay large amounts of money for his services, especially since his contract expires in 2025 and he has no intention of renewing. Therefore, the plan may be to hold out for a year to sign him as a free agent.

If this cannot be done, the European champions will not offer more than €35 million to the Bavarians. Bayern will then have to decide whether to release him or risk losing him for free next summer. Madrid is optimistic that it will be able to get him, the question is when and under what conditions. Max Eberl will have the last word.
