Real Madrid’s reported interest in Alphonso Davies has got the Canadian defender frustrating Bayern Munich’s bid to extend his contract at the Bundesliga club.
The Bundesliga champions have been negotiating with the Canadian defender to extend his contract, with his current deal set to expire in 2025.
