Alphonso Davies sidelined for months with ACL injury, Upamecano also out

Bayern Munich's Alphonso Davies faces a lengthy absence after suffering a torn cruciate ligament in his right knee during a match with Canada's national team. He will undergo surgery and is expected to be sidelined for several months. Alongside him, teammate Dayot Upamecano will also be unavailable for several weeks due to a knee issue. Bayern's sporting director, Max Eberl, expressed concern over injuries returning from international duty, highlighting the significant impact of losing both players. Eberl assured that the team is strong enough to cope with these setbacks and will continue to pursue their goals. This injury comes after Davies had recently signed a contract extension with Bayern until June 2030.
