Note: This is a compilation of several posts based on a report by Bild involving a potential police matter involving Bayern Munich star Alphonso Davies. No official word from the player, nor the club has dropped at the time of this writing. Again, this post is based off of a report from Bild and an extraction by RMC Sport amon other news outlets.
Just when things were really starting to click for both Bayern Munich and Alphonso Davies, the Canadian might be in some hot water.
According to a report from Bild, Davies was stopped by police for driving “slightly drunk” in a Lamborghini. This is obviously not the kind of news that the team needed ahead of its tile with Borussia Dortmund in Der Klassiker on Saturday:
This is what Bild had in their tease in front of the paywall:
Bayern star Alphonso Davies (24) was stopped by the police in the middle of Munich and was no longer allowed to drive his sports car.
Read exclusively with BILDplus what blood alcohol level was measured, what threatens him now and how FC Bayern reacts.
RMC Sport captured the report and posted this information:
With an estimated blood alcohol level of 0.6 g/l, Alphonso Davies was arrested while drunk driving a Lamborghini on the night of Thursday to Friday, German media outlet Bild reported. Bayern Munich has not yet commented.
It was in the very centre of Munich that Alphonso Davies (24) had trouble with the police. Three days after Bayern Munich’s victory over Paris Saint-Germain (1-0), on the night of Thursday to Friday at around 2:15 am, the explosive left-back was arrested at the wheel of a black Lamborghini Urus by the police, Bild announced on Friday.
It was while talking to the Canadian international that the police officers smelled a strong odor of alcohol. After taking him directly to the station to carry out an alcohol test, the Munich player was assessed at 0.6 g/l of blood (the legal limit being set at 0.5 for experienced drivers), specifies the German media, which constitutes an infraction and not an offense (the criminal sanction starts at 0.8 g/l).
Zach Lowy broke it down as well:
Alphonso Davies was pulled over at 2:15 a.m. today after driving drunk in his Lamborghini Urus.
Davies’ blood alcohol content was 0.6, which will likely see him receive a fine of €500 and lose his driver’s license for a month.https://t.co/oVbdVw2Ivi
