Decision this week?
FC Bayern pushes Davies' answer
Despite the international trip to Texas, the fast left-footed player is likely to have a future at FC Bayern more than just in the back of his mind.
Davies' contract in Munich runs until 2025, but the club, led by new sports director Max Eberl, gave him an ultimatum - in order to avoid a free transfer next year.
According to information from Sky, the record champions are demanding a decision from the 23-year-old, who is being courted by Real Madrid, this week.
The club presented him with a contract ready to be signed, which, according to Sky, will run until 2029.
The ball is in Alphonso Davies's court.

Final Bayern offer: Eberl gives Davies an ultimatum
Eberl recently confirmed the final offer himself: “I can say: We made Alphonso a very concrete, appreciative offer.
At some point in life you have to say yes or no.” Real Madrid have “not contacted Bayern” to date, Eberl also revealed.
Davies must therefore decide promptly whether he will accept FC Bayern's final offer or not.
If he rejects the offer, a sale in the summer is likely.
The Munich team apparently gave the left-back a mega price tag for this case.
