The painful story of Bayern's magic boy: Davies from immigrants' tents in Ghana to becoming a superstar

Human stories are different, just like travel after, success, failure, disappointment, but also beautiful surprises...

Everyone's got a landing and climbing, just to take advantage of the moment, especially if you have a talent inside you, like Alphonso Davies, Bayern Munich's magic boy.

From an immigrant tent under the reflections of Bundesligas and world football: Davies' trampoline was as fast as its impact on the field as a “spriniter”.

Left wing guard, has all taken care of himself, as far as Bayern Munich rubs his hands and armor. There's still things to fix (“I can't fix any field positioning error with my ability to run” but for a 2000 birthday footballer everything is allowed...

To get to this scene, as we said, it started from far away. His parents fled from the civil war in Liberia, taking refuge in Buduburam, Ghana.

It was hard to live because the only way was to survive and move with a gun to the belt... I had no interest in using the weapon, so we decided to flee by applying to a program that took us to Canada”.

Alphonso was only five when his family moved to Edmonton, Alberta. While his parents worked to feed and support the children, Davies attended St. Nicholas Catholic School, carrying the two younger brothers.

“A talent born” would name some of his teachers, while in post-school tournaments, he surprised everyone, as he was 14 years old from Edmonton to Vancouver: Hey, guys! Alfonso becomes the youngest football player to debut in USL (second American Categories) and the first of the year 2000 to play in the MLS: 15, 8 months, and 15 days.

“From U-16 to U-18, second and first squad. The rare thing to do again” will remind his first president, Bob Leonarduzi.

Only 16 years old debuto with Canada's great national on June 14, 2017, in the Kurachao match. Just a week earlier, he received Canadian citizenship. In the second match, two goals, making it the youngest player to have scored at Gold Cup and the first born in the 21st century to make a major international tour.

In the summer of 2018, Bayern surprised everyone and paid Vancouver Whitecaps 10 ml. Too much for a 17-year-old boy who grew up in Canada and not Brazil!

On 2019 he leaves towards Germany and Munich, and after expressing his happiness that he has fulfilled a dream, debuted on January 27, 2019, under the eyes of Niko Kovac: four minutes at the end instead of Coman. It was supposed to be the French alternative. Plays a few matches with the second team and trains with the first, where comes the goal of Mainz, to win 6-0.

Coach Kovac has the genius idea that Davies can play left-wing defender and cannot be a reserve as he is pursued by team B, category 3rd.

Taking advantage of Lucas Hernandez's convalescent situation (paid at 80 ml) also starts playing title on the left, as far as Alabama moves to the centre of defence. Davies plays his first major match on October 26th, home to Union Berlin.

“How the hell this man runs”, will write Romelu Lukak, while on the team they start calling him “Beep”, like Mueller. In the Dortmund classic, except for a few mistakes, everyone marvels: Davies can't stop, a real engine, just like his life, from Africa to Canada and Germany... Next stop? Maybe this time he'll get some rest...
