The Canada international's contract at Bayern expires in 2025 and the club are eager to sign him to a new deal. Negotiations initially started earlier this year, but the departure of director Hasan Salihamidzic disrupted the talks. Discussions resumed with new sporting director Christoph Freund, but <a href="https://sportbild.bild.de/bundesliga/vereine/bayern-muenchen/fc-bayern-verlaengerung-mit-alphonso-davies-ploetzlich-viel-teurer-86352354.sport.html" target="_blank">Sport Bild</a> reports Davies is demanding significantly more money than before.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Davies was initially supposed to agree a contract that would see him earn around €12 million (£10m/$13m) per season at Bayern, a big increase on his current annual salary of around €9m (£8m/$10m). The 23-year-old, who joined Bayern from Vancouver in 2019, remains a pivotal figure for Thomas Tuchel's team, having played 19 games in all competitions this term.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

The full-back has been tipped to follow in the footsteps of ex-Bayern team-mate David Alaba in <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/real-madrid-alphonso-davies-pursuit-bayern-eur50-million-price-tag-carlo-ancelotti/blt5a6057bf3abe1d21" target="_blank">leaving the Bavarian side for Real Madrid</a>. His agent, Nedal Househ, has flirted with the Spanish side regularly, saying in October: "There is interest from many teams. I’m sure Real Madrid could be one of the clubs that would like to sign Davies."

DID YOU KNOW?

While talks are likely to continue between Davies and Bayern, they will first turn their attention to their upcoming match against Eintracht Frankfurt in the Bundesliga. Bayern are currently second in the German top-flight, three points behind leaders Bayer Leverkusen.
