Real Madrid hope to sign Bayern Munich defender for €30m transfer fee
By Kian Long
Real Madrid will consider their options in the summer transfer window from next week. Admittedly, the higher-ups at the Santiago Bernabeu are fixated on one thing and one thing only, that is the UEFA Champions League final. The spectacle is understandably pushing all other priorities to one side but this is a testament to why Real are the most successful club in the competition's history.
In the summer transfer window, it is widely documented that Real Madrid will try to sign a Bayern Munich defender. It is no secret that Alphonso Davies is of interest to Carlo Ancelotti, and a golden opportunity seems to have presented itself.
Davies runs out of contract at the Allianz Arena in 2025. From Bayern Munich's perspective, the ultimatum is clear - Either Davies signs a new contract, or he will be sold this summer. Well, as time has progressed, Davies is yet to put pen to paper in Munich, so Real Madrid wish to capitalise on this.

Real Madrid hope to sign Bayern Munich defender for €30m transfer fee
According to Defensa Central, Real Madrid hope to secure Alphonso Davies for a cut-price and bargain fee of just €30m. The report states that it is working in Madrid's favour that they are in no rush to sign Davies but instead, the onus of rushing is on Bayern, to tie him down to a new contract. After all, Real have two incredible left-backs in their ranks, Ferland Mendy and Fran García.
It is understandable that Real Madrid fans are excited by the potential of signing Alphonso Davies. This is to be expected, especially given the incredible performance Davies put in against Real in the semifinal. However, as stated within the report, Real Madrid are excited by the opportunity but they will not rush the transfer saga.
The power is, in many ways, Real's hands. Particularly if Davies refuses to commit his future to Bayern, it is up to Real to essentially decide the price. As per journalist Javier Rodríguez Pascual, Real Madrid are confident about their ability to fight for the lowest available price for Davies.
As per Defensa Central, Javier Rodríguez Pascual said (translated to English, originally in Spanish): "The objective of the whites is to sign Alphonso Davies for an amount that ranges between 30 and 35 million euros . The less, the better. And they are going to fight for it."
