Bayern Munich not giving up on efforts to renew €70 million-rated Real Madrid top target

Perennially in pursuit of trophies and glory, Real Madrid are always on the lookout for elite talents capable of raising the squad’s bar.

While the Merengues have ample options at left-back, with Ferland Mendy also in good form, Real Madrid continue to be allured by the idea of acquiring Bayern Munich star, Alphonso Davies.

Davies high on Madrid’s wishlist

Real Madrid have been opportunistically following the events surrounding Alphonso Davies over the past few months, with Fabrizio Romano reporting that the Canadian international remains a top target for Real Madrid.

The information argues that Bayern Munich will not throw in the towel so easily. Intent on retaining the 23-year-old’s services, they will try until the summer to renew his contract.

Reports have previously stated that Davies and Bayern have struggled to find common ground, with the Canadian demanding €13 million per season, which would make him one of the highest-paid players in the squad.

The Bavarians are currently holding out as they show no intention of disrupting their wage structure, which is the primary cause for negotiations between both parties stalling.

As such, if an agreement is not reached, Real Madrid will have a huge opportunity to sign the €70 million-rated full-back this summer.

With Davies’ contract set to expire in June 2025, Bayern would be open to hearing offers for their star player before he becomes a free agent, allowing the Royal Whites to pounce on the situation.

While the report mentions that Bayern will continue to persuade Davies until the summer, so far, he has turned down their offers of a contract extension, and the Bavarians will be compelled to sell him if this pattern keeps up until June.
