Bayern Munich announced today, Sunday, that its Canadian international defender Alfonso Davis will be absent from the last two games for the team before the international stoppage period, but it does not face the specter of absence from the World Cup Qatar.
Davis, 22, left the game after experiencing thigh muscle pain in the second half of Bayern Munich’s 3/2 victory over Hera Berlin on Saturday.
Alfonso Davies was ruled out of the final two Bundesliga games against Werder Bremen and Schalke prior to the winter break, according to a statement released by Bayern Munich on Sunday.
The Canadian national team’s participation in the World Cup is not in jeopardy, according to Bayern.
The first day of the World Cup in Qatar is November 20, and Canada’s tournament campaign gets underway on November 23 against Belgium before facing Croatia and Morocco.
After competing in the 1986 World Cup, Davis is one of the key players for Canada, who is competing in the World Cup for the second time.
