Alphonso Davies, Canada's captain, has suffered a hamstring injury and faces a multi-week layoff, casting doubt on his availability for Bayern Munich’s remaining fixtures and potentially impacting his World Cup readiness.

The injury occurred during Bayern Munich’s 1-1 draw with Paris Saint-Germain in the second leg of the Champions League semi-final, with PSG advancing 6-5 on aggregate.

Davies previously returned from a cruciate knee ligament injury and has made 23 appearances with one goal and five assists this season, but fitness issues have persisted.

Kompany said he will assess players in training and select based on readiness and form, aiming to balance attacking intent with ensuring players are fully prepared for the match and future fixtures.
