Canada captain Alphonso Davies injured in Bayern win

Davies suffered a right hamstring muscle tear and will be sidelined indefinitely, raising concerns ahead of the World Cup co-hosted by Canada, officials said.

  • On Saturday, Feb. 21, Alphonso Davies was forced off injured during Bayern Munich's 3-2 win over Eintracht Frankfurt, sparking fears of a lengthy layoff with the World Cup four months away.
  • Having earlier returned from an ACL tear in December, Alphonso Davies went down after an innocuous foul from Mahmoud Dahoud, appearing to be in serious pain.
  • Davies covered his face with his jersey as teammates consoled him after an apparent ankle injury, but he walked off unassisted; Bayern sporting director Max Eberl said, `It looked like it might be something longer-term. It has to be something muscular`.
  • Harry Kane scored twice, taking his season tally to 45, as Bayern held on for their 19th win in 23 league games against Eintracht Frankfurt.
  • Canada will co-host the World Cup from June 11 to July 19, 2026, so Alphonso Davies is vital to the national team’s hopes.
