Bayern Munich faces a transfer shock: Alphonso Davies is set to leave for Athletic Club

The record champions are on the verge of a surprising move. After a year marred by injuries, the Canadian is no longer part of Bayern Munich's plans. Athletic Club is close to signing the left-back. The 26-year-old Davies, who struggled with absences last season, could now start fresh in Bilbao.

What does this departure mean for Bayern Munich?

Davies' exit marks a turning point for Bayern. The Canadian was a key player for a long time, but after an injury-plagued season, the split seems inevitable. With Lennart Karl and Serge Gnabry currently sidelined, the team faces new challenges.

Why is Davies no longer in the plans?

After a series of injuries and lack of continuity, the coach has decided that Davies no longer fits into the team's future. The move to Athletic Club gives the player the chance to play regularly and restart his career.

What comes next?

Negotiations between Bayern Munich and Athletic Club are in the final stages. Once the deal is done, Davies will be officially presented as the new player of the Spanish club. Bayern will now begin the search for a replacement.
