Real Madrid are awaiting the green light after agreeing terms with Bayern Munich's Alphonso Davies

Real Madrid enter the January transfer window with a lot invested – at least they hope so. His recruitment commitment is for the summer, but deal for Trent Alexander-Arnold and Alphonso Davies likely to be decided in the first month of the year.

As for the latter, AS Diary explain that Real Madrid are waiting to see what happens. Bayern Munich have increased their offers, and intensified discussions to try to keep him. However, Real Madrid have not made a move in recent months: they are waiting for Davies to keep his word that he would sign for them before the year. Los Blancos agreed terms with him in March, and those terms remain in place as things stand. Real Madrid he will not increase his bid.

The Canadian defender can be Real Madrid's starter for years to come if he signs with Los Blancos. Fran Garcia is under contract until 2026, but is not seen as a first choice. Meanwhile the club has agreed, if not announced a renewal for Ferland Mendy, but the French defender has been on the sidelines this season due to injuries and form.
