Bayern Munich defender Alphonso Davies has agreed a preliminary agreement to join Real Madrid on a free transfer in 2025, marking one of Los Blancos’ most notable deals in recent years.
Real Madrid are gradually revolutionizing their squad , and the latest deal with Alphonso Davies is attracting special attention from experts. According to information from reputable journalist Rodra and confirmed by many sources in the Spanish press, the 24-year-old Canadian star has decided to join the Royal team when his contract with Bayern Munich ends in 2025.
Notably, Davies will be able to start official negotiations with Real Madrid from January 1, 2025 and can sign a contract from July 1, 2025. This agreement is considered a strategic step by Real Madrid in strengthening the team’s defense.
Spanish newspapers have confirmed that the Canadian defender has agreed to join Los Blancos.
Although Bayern Munich have recently made efforts to retain Davies by offering him a final contract extension, according to a report from Radio Marca journalist Ramón Álvarez de Mon, the Canadian is determined to pursue a new challenge at the Santiago Bernabeu. This decision was further confirmed by the Relevo portal, which revealed that Davies had reached an agreement in principle with the Royal team.
Real Madrid’s transfer strategy doesn’t stop at Davies. According to Relevo, the club are also targeting a free transfer double with interest in Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold. The 26-year-old English right-back is also out of contract and is being actively pursued by Los Blancos. Although Alexander-Arnold has not made a final decision, his continued rejection of Liverpool’s offers to extend his contract has Real Madrid confident of a successful signing.
Real Madrid’s defensive rebuild is well underway. With Davies committed to his future, the left-back position is no longer a pressing concern. This allows the club to focus on strengthening other positions, particularly at centre-back and right-back.
Alphonso Davies has long been pursued by Real Madrid.
However, committing to Davies could also impact Real Madrid’s short-term transfer strategy. With two big-money deals on the table, including Davies and possibly Alexander-Arnold, the club may be more cautious about spending in the upcoming winter transfer window.
If all goes according to plan, Real Madrid’s defence could undergo a complete overhaul by 2025. The successful recruitment of Davies not only solves the problem at left-back but also demonstrates the club’s ambition to build a strong squad for the future.
