Canada head coach Jesse Marsch confirms that Alphonso Davies will miss Canada’s World Cup opener against Bosnia tomorrow: “We did an MRI yesterday, he’s healing incredibly well, but not at 100% just yet.”
It was always going to be a longshot for Davies to be ready for the opener, but fans — and the team itself — might have gotten their hopes up when Davies, the team captain, hit the training pitch earlier this week.
In truth, Bayern Munich would much rather prefer that Davies was fully healthy and not in danger of missing any of the World Cup, but Davies being held out likely will not make the Bavarians lose any sleep. After dealing with a torn ACL and two muscle injuries during the club season, Bayern Munich does not want to take any chances with one of its prized players.
