According to CKOM 650 News, Bayern Munich midfielder Alphonso Daves of Edmonton, Alberta was named the Bundesliga rookie of the month for May. In four games, Davies had two goals and one assist.

Davies notched one goal and one assist in a 5-2 Bayern Munich win over Eintracht Frankfurt on May 23. He then notched one more goal in a 5-0 win over Fortuna Dusseldorf FC on May 30.

So far in 2019-20, Davies has three goals and four assists in 27 Bundesliga games. In 2018-19, he had one goal in six Bundesliga games for Bayern Munich.

It seems like Davies is also fitting comfortably into Bayern Munich’s system at the moment. He also recently received high praise from his teammate, Thomas Mueller, who called him the “FC Bayern Roadrunner.” Mueller has had a remarkable season for Bayern Munich. He has set the Bundesliga record for most assists in a season (20) in 2019-20.

Bayern Munich has three more games left in the Bundesliga this season. They play Werder Bremen on June 16, SC Freiburg on June 20, and Vfl Wolfsburg on June 27.

In addition to the Bundesliga in 2019-20, Davies has also been productive for Bayern Munich in the Champions League action. He has three assists in four games. Two of the assists came in Bayern Munich’s 3-1 win over Tottenham Hotspur on December 11, and his third assist came in Bayern Munich’s 3-0 win over Chelsea in the first leg of the Champions League’s round of 16. There are hopes to finish up Champions League play at some point in 2020. The European tournament was postponed on March 13 indefinitely because of coronavirus.
