The Bundesliga season is over for Bayern Munich’s star, according to a stark report from *Bild*. The German outlet confirmed that Alphonso Davies has suffered another muscle injury, raising serious concerns for Canada just over a month before the World Cup. “Alphonso Davies won’t be able to play in this match. We’ll evaluate after analyzing the images to determine how long he’ll be out,” said Vincent Kompany ahead of the game.
Hours later, however, the severity escalated. The harsh reality set in: the left hamstring was affected, and all signs point to a muscle tear. This adds to a long list of physical setbacks since his return in late 2025 after more than six months on the sidelines due to a ruptured cruciate ligament. As a result, criticism has followed him from the start. “They gave Davies a princely contract extension, but his performance so far doesn’t justify it,” said former German international Didi Hamann. The full-back, who renewed his deal last year after months of negotiations, reportedly signed a signing bonus of approximately €22 million and an annual salary of €15 million plus bonuses, according to *Bild*.
This is the third muscle injury since his return. In February 2026, he suffered a right hamstring tear. Then, in his first game back—the first leg of the Champions League round of 16 against Atalanta—he injured the same hamstring again. In the coming weeks of May, it will become clear whether he can participate in the World Cup, which will be held in his home country, Canada, along with Mexico and the United States (from June 11 to July 19). The absence of his superstar would be a heavy blow for Canada and yet another setback for him personally.
