Because of the serious knee injury to Alphonso Davies, FC Bayern is considering a lawsuit against the Canadian Football Association. The defender had recently suffered a cruciate ligament tear in an international match and failed for several months. “We are calling for a complete clarification of the processes of Canada Soccer and expressly resigned from legal steps,” said Munich’s CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen of the “Bild” newspaper.
Davies had already injured the Concacaf Nation League against the United States in the early minutes. At first you did not go out of a heavy injury, the 24-year-old traveled back to Munich. Only there was the cruciate ligament tear in the right knee discovered.
Dreesen: “Clear violation of medical care”
This caused great trouble at Bayern. “From our point of view, sending an obviously injured player with a battered knee without well-founded medical clarification to a twelve-hour intercontinental flight is grossly negligent and a clear violation of the medical duty of care,” complained Dreesen.
The Munich team is outraged that the recently strong defender was set up at all. “Overall, the use of Davies, who had muscular complaints before the game, is in no way understandable in a sporty, insignificant game,” said Dreesen.

Davies consultant more often spoke to Canada coach march
It is particularly bitter for Bayern that in addition to Davies in the upcoming games in the fight for the championship and the Champions League, the also injured defender Minjae Kim and Dayot Upamecano will also be.
Before Dreesen, Davies consultant Nedal Huoseh had suffered sharp criticism of the Canadian association in an interview and accused the selection coach Jesse Marsch that he had unnecessarily brought his captain into the risk of injury. In the meantime, however, he spoke to march several times, wrote Huoseh on the platform X and said: “From now on everyone involved will concentrate on giving phonzie recovery at the highest priority.”
