According to Spanish journalist Mario Cortegana (via Madrid Universal), Real Madrid already agreed on terms with Alphonso Davies over a potential move to the Santiago Bernabeu back in February 2024. The Canadian international is a top target for Los Blancos as they look to reinforce their defensive department.
Davies is in the final months of his contract at Bayern Munich and has yet to sign a new deal. Madrid are either looking to sign him in the upcoming winter transfer window or are hopeful that he will run down his contract with the Bundesliga giants so they can snap him on a free next summer.
Recent reports hinted that Bayern are keen on keeping Davies at the club and are preparing a new contract for him. The players' financial demands were also suggested as a reason why talks over a possible deal for the 24-year-old have stalled.
However, according to Cortegana, Real Madrid met with Davies' camp in February, and both parties reached an agreement over a potential transfer. The report claims that terms over a possible move in the 2024 or 2025 summer transfer windows were discussed.
Thus, despite not landing the Bayern Munich left-back in the summer, agreements for a future transfer are likely already in place. This means that the player is interested in a move to the LaLiga giants and could still join them despite Bayern's desire to keep him at the Allianz Arena.
Davies is one of the most talented and exciting full-backs in Europe. He has 12 goals and 34 assists in 216 appearances for Bayern Munich, and has won five league titles and the UEFA Champions League with the side.
Real Madrid will look to sign former player if they fail to land Alphonso Davies - Report
Real Madrid will look to sign AC Milan left-back Theo Hernandez if they fail to get Alphonso Davies, as per Fichajes.net. Hernandez, 27, played for Real Madrid between 2017 and 2019 before leaving for Serie A.
Los Blancos have made Davies their primary target for the left-back position. However, they could end up not getting the Canadian international as Bayern Munich are keen on him staying put at the club.
As such, Madrid could be forced to look towards Hernandez, who has a market valuation of €50 million as per Transfermarkt.
