New developments hinder Real Madrid in race to sign leading transfer target

Real Madrid is targeting Trent Alexander-Arnold and Alphonso Davies to bolster their full-back positions for the 2025-26 season. However, their pursuit of Davies has hit a significant obstacle.

According to *The Athletic* via *Relevo*, Bayern Munich has presented a new contract offer to Davies, reportedly closer to meeting his demands.

The proposed four-year deal could see the Canadian defender remain in Bavaria, significantly reducing Real Madrid’s chances of securing his signature.

While Real Madrid has been confident about signing the 24-year-old left-back this summer, the latest developments cast doubt on the transfer.

Should Bayern secure Davies’ commitment, it raises questions about whether Madrid will still prioritize strengthening their left-back position, which has been an area of concern this season. The situation remains uncertain as negotiations unfold.
