Canadian star Alphonso Davies has agreed to a new four and a half year contract with Bayern Munich. The deal will extend Davies' run with the team through June 2030.
Alphonso Davies has re-signed with Bayern Munich, ending a lengthy romance with other big-name European clubs reportedly interested in the Canada captain.Davies' existing contract with the German powerhouse expires June 30, prompting transfer talk with the likes of Spanish giant Real Madrid as talks with Bayern dragged on.
Davies agreed to join Bayern for an MLS record fee in July 2018, finishing out the season with the Vancouver Whitecaps before making the move. Born in a refugee camp in Ghana to parents who had fled the civil war in Liberia, Davies came to Canada when he was five. And he turned heads playing soccer in Edmonton.
"Alphonso is a player with a lot of heart and a lot of power, with extreme power," Bayern forward Thomas Muller said at the time."Sometimes maybe he is not in the best position on the field, but he gets the opponent thinking, 'Oh, I have time, I have time,' and then, 'Meep, meep. Meep, meep.' The Road Runner, the FC Bayern Road Runner, comes and steals the ball.""We are happy that he will remain with FC Bayern in the long term.
