22-year-old Bayern Munich speedster wants to play for Real Madrid – report
Earlier this week, Real Madrid announced the signing of Fran Garcia to bolster the left-back department heading into the next season.
However, the Merengues are still not done with reinforcing the left-back position as they have doubts about Ferland Mendy. The Frenchman struggled with form and fitness issues during the 2022/23 campaign and has been put up for sale.
And Real Madrid have set their sights on Alphonso Davies of Bayern Munich as the man to replace Mendy at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Now, journalist Tomas Gonzalez-Martin is reporting that the 22-year-old Davies wants to join and play for Real Madrid. But a move for the Canadian speedster will depend on whether Los Blancos can get rid of Mendy successfully or not.
Davies, whose market value stands at €70 million, has a contract with Bayern Munich until 2025. And his agent has been dropping hints that a renewal might not be on the cards.
However, even if that is the case, the Bavarian giants will be reluctant to sell the 22-year-old youngster this summer.
But in case the player is intent on making the switch to Real Madrid and pushes for an exit, the German champions could be forced to change their stance.
Although, as iterated earlier, any move for Davies will depend on whether the Merengues can offload Mendy or not.
The French international has been linked with clubs in the Premier League, while there have been talks of using him as a makeweight in the Harry Kane operation.
If the Spanish capital outfit are successful in getting rid of the former Olympique Lyon ace one way or the other this summer, it would open the door for them to launch a move for Davies. But negotiations with Bayern Munich are unlikely to be easy.

Real Madrid very happy with future star Endrick, eagerly awaiting his arrival in 2024 – Romano
Real Madrid’s attacking unit has been crippled by the loss of Karim Benzema earlier in the summer, which was followed by the loss of Vinicius Jr due to injury.
Although Vinicius has returned, there is much left to be desired from the Madrid frontline as we progress through to the season.
Real Madrid, though, are waiting on the arrival of Endrick. The young Brazilian is set to join the Real Madrid squad in the summer of 2024 when he turns 18.
Real Madrid impressed by Endrick
Endrick has already started his preparation for his pending move to Santiago Bernabeu, having performed exceptionally well in his native Brazil this year.
The youngster is constantly working on his game, in order to further improve himself as an attacker. It has left Real Madrid quite happy and eager for his arrival, reports Fabrizio Romano.
The journalist claims that Real Madrid have been keeping close tabs on everything Endrick has been doing, on and off the pitch, at Palmeiras.
And they have received very good reports on the 17-year-old, with the club impressed by how he is putting efforts to improve himself both performance-wise and in other facets.
Despite there being some question marks over his performances, the teenage forward is starting to showcase his potential, having scored five goals in five starts for Palmeiras.
Endrick also learning new languages
Endrick is not only just working on his performance. In fact, the Brazilian is also learning other languages in order to quickly settle into life in Spain.
The youngster can speak Portuguese, but he may have to master Spanish during his time at Santiago Bernabeu.
As mentioned earlier, Endrick can already speak Portuguese, which should go a long way in helping him team up with fellow Brazilians Vinicius Jr and Rodrygo.
Even Eder Militao can speak Portuguese, which should make it easier for Endrick to adapt to life in Spain, at least for the next year or so.
