Chelsea have targeted Bayern Munich left-back Alphonso Davies to strengthen that position in the team. Injury problems and the recent departure of Ian Maatsen to Borussia Dortmund have left Mauricio Pochettino with a gap in that area of the pitch, although Ben Chilwell is his main option.
However, Chilwell has struggled with ongoing injury problems and in his absence, Marc Cucurella has taken his place, although he is also currently struggling with physical issues. With Levi Colwill and Reece James adjusting in their positions, Chelsea are looking to resolve this crisis with the possible acquisition of Davies.
Chelsea want Davies
With just 18 months left on his contract at Bayern Munich, Alphonso Davies has caught the attention of Chelsea, who are ready to take advantage of the Canadian player's contract situation. There is speculation that Davies could leave the German club before his contract expires and Chelsea appear ready to make efforts to lure him away from Bayern.
Despite Raphael Guerreiro's competence at Bayern, Ben Chilwell has been considered as an option to strengthen the left side of the German team due to current injuries. However, Real Madrid are also interested in Davies, which could complicate the situation.
Known for his attacking abilities as a left-back, Alphonso Davies has delivered outstanding performances since arriving at Bayern in 2019, being involved in 34 defensive goals. Although his contract has not yet been extended, Davies has had an injury-free season so far and has been a key player at Bayern under Thomas Tuchel. The competition for his signature could heat up in the coming months.
