Alphonso Davies could be headed for the exit door at Bayern Munich amid reports linking him with a Premier League transfer.
The 23-year-old, who can play as a left-back or winger, has been negotiating a new contract with the German club as his current deal expires in the summer of 2025.
However, it is believed the Canadian international’s exorbitant wage demands and the Bavarian outfit now seem to be putting their foot down.
Bayern are “unwilling” to meet Davies’ demands of €13m per year plus bonuses, according to Kicker (via iMiaSanMia). The Bundesliga champions no longer want to pay “excessive wages” for players as they have done in the past.
Man City, Chelsea, and Liverpool have all been linked with the player, although Real Madrid are widely considered the favourites to sign him.
In October, Davies’ agent Nedal Huoseh said: “There is interest from many teams. I read the same articles on the internet, but in the end we will see what happens in the coming months
“I am sure that Real Madrid can be one of the clubs that would like to sign Davies, along with several English Premier League clubs. They all want to have one of the best left-backs in the world.”
Davies just returned to training after suffering a ligament strain in his left knee during Bayern’s 3-1 home win over Borussia Monchengladbach earlier this month.
