Bayern Munich has received a significant boost ahead of their German Bundesliga clash with RB Leipzig as Canadian defender of African descent, Alphonso Davies, returns from injury.
Davies had been sidelined for 23 days due to a torn muscle but is now fit to rejoin the squad. The news is particularly welcome for Bayern, who are eager to bounce back after a 2-1 defeat to Mainz over the weekend.
In addition to Davies, Bayern’s talismanic striker Harry Kane has also recovered from his injury and is ready to feature against RB Leipzig.
Kane, who has been in sensational form this season with 20 goals and nine assists in 19 games, last played on November 30 when he sustained an injury during a match against Dortmund.
Bayern currently leads the Bundesliga with 33 points from 14 games. However, their lead has been reduced to just four points, with Bayer Leverkusen closing the gap.
Meanwhile, speculation about Davies’ future continues to swirl as Real Madrid reportedly maintains an interest in the dynamic left-back ahead of the upcoming winter transfer window.
With both Davies and Kane back to full fitness, Bayern Munich will be eager to consolidate their position at the top of the Bundesliga standings in their crucial fixture against Leipzig.
