Real Madrid's Reaction to Alphonso Davies's Serious Injury, 6 Months Out

The Bavarian footballer suffers a significant ailment after his last match with Canada

Real Madrid Has Registered Various Changes in Its Originally Planned Roadmap for the 2025 Transfer Market. The White Chiefs had scheduled several signings for that summer window that, ultimately, will not occur. At Least Not All, since one of the players called to sign for the White Club has decided to reject that opportunity.

The Cancellation of Alphonso Davies's Arrival as a Free Agent, news that reached Real Madrid just two months ago, represented an unexpected plot twist in this saga. Because many assured that Bayern Munich's '19' was ready to sign for the White Team... a future that did not end up happening to the surprise of almost everyone.

Davies, after several tense conversations with Bayern Munich's chiefs, decided to renew until the summer of 2030 with the German sports discipline. The international break in March, far from confirming him as one of the best players in his position, has brought terrible news: he has been injured and will have a long time out.

During his last match, Alphonso Davies tore his cruciate ligament. Fabrizio Romano, reporting on this event, has noted that the Bavarian '19' will be out for approximately six months: "his season is over", the Italian journalist stated on social media.

Bad News

Alphonso Davies Will Have to Wait Until the 25/26 Season to Play Soccer, something that provokes a striking reaction in the Valdebebas offices. Because Real Madrid Would Be Preparing One of Its Famous Letters to Long-Term Injured Players, a decision that shows the good faith of the White Club regarding its sports rivals.

But that missive, sent to players like Pablo Gavi or Antonio Rüdiger, is also a long-term strategy by the Merengue executives. Especially considering that the letter sent to Rüdiger in 2017 played a key role in his arrival at Santiago Bernabéu locker room six years later. The Now German '22' Is an Idol of Madridism, fully established as Carlo Ancelotti's first central defender.

Due to the recent renewal of Alphonso Davies, it remains to be seen what role this missive plays in the Canadian footballer's future. For now, Real Madrid Will Send the Letter Without Intentions of Changing the Course of the Left-Back's Career... although his name may not have disappeared from the lists of potential signings as easily as some claim.

The White Sports Management Acknowledges, likewise, that Davies's prospects for a future signing are closely related to his recovery. At the White Club, they know firsthand what that process means, so they will wait for the most suitable moment to show interest in the player again... in case he still has a place in Santiago Bernabéu locker room.
