Bayern Munich receives compensation: Davies injured in international match!

FC Bayern Munich is facing financial and organizational challenges due to a serious injury to Alphonso Davies. According to FAZ , the football club will expect compensation from the FIFA, the exact amount of which must still be determined. This is done in the context of a special FIFA protection program that is intended for players for injuries during international matches.

Davies, who suffered a cruciate ligament tear and cartilage damage in an international match in mid -March, will probably fail for a long time. After replacing the United States during the game, the severity of the injury turned out to be in Munich when he returned to Munich. Bavaria's CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen initially took legal action against the Canadian Football Association, but decided to consider the association's protection obligations to be fulfilled.

reactions and consequences for FC Bayern

After Davies's injury -related failure, FC Bayern is taking consequences to improve the safety of its players on international tours. Dreesen plans to intensify contact with the state associations of Bayern players to ensure that the protection obligations are better fulfilled in injury cases. He emphasized that Canada Soccer had to prioritize the health and security of the players.

It is important to mention that the Canadian national coach Jesse Marsch supported the representation of the circumstances about Davies' injury. He confirmed once again that no pressure was exerted on the player and that he was fit and ready for the game before the serious injury occurred.

FIFA protection program and new guidelines

In the context of these developments, compensation by FIFA only gains importance. This compensation is related to the recent adjustments in the FIFA disciplinary and ethics code, which came into force on February 1, 2023. These new regulations, which were developed in cooperation with various interest groups such as the International Association of Football Lawyers, aim to improve the protection of certain parties in procedures from FIFA justice organs. Details on these changes can be found on the official FIFA website Overall, it remains to be seen how Bayern Munich and other clubs will react to the necessary security and protective measures in order to avoid similar injuries in the future and to ensure the health of their players.
