<p>A <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/whatever-happens-canada-star-alphonso-davies-real-madrid-transfer-rumours-champions-league-audition-bayern-munich/bltee187c2dceccddac" target="_blank">move to Santiago Bernabeu for flying full-back Davies</a> has been speculated on for some time. Those rumours have intensified since the 24-year-old entered the final 12 months of his deal at the Allianz Arena – with free agency beckoning.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>It was suggested at one stage that Davies was <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/real-madrid-alphonso-davies-bayern-munich-canada-kylian-mbappe/blte997d611a1ded9aa" target="_blank">ready to take on a new challenge with the Spanish giants</a>, but Bayern will not be allowing him to move on without a fight. Another <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/real-madrid-u-turn-bayern-munich-star-alphonso-davies-explained/bltf971e35fdb9fc6a3" target="_blank">offer of fresh terms in Germany</a> has been tabled to the Canada international.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>With reinforcements on the left of their back four proving hard to come by, Real continue to be heavily <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/trent-alexander-arnold-tipped-challenge-ballon-d-or-real-madrid-ex-liverpool-striker-mate-jude-bellingham-swaying-transfer-decision/blt6667f289e8651a51" target="_blank">linked with a move to bring in Trent Alexander-Arnold</a> on the right. The England international is another of those set to become a free agent in 2025, with his contract running down at Liverpool.</p>
