The Canadian Soccer Federation is defending its medical handling of Alphonso Davies following a serious knee injury sustained during the Concacaf Nations League finals. Bayern Munich claimed that Canada Soccer failed to provide adequate care, asserting that sending an injured Davies on a lengthy flight without thorough medical assessment was negligent. Canada Soccer rebuffed these allegations, stating they adhered to all care protocols and maintained communication with Bayern throughout the tournament. With surgery completed, Davies is expected to be sidelined for several months, impacting Bayern's season as they pursue league and Champions League titles.
"Sending a clearly injured player with a damaged knee on a 12-hour intercontinental flight without a thorough medical assessment is, in our view, grossly negligent and a clear breach of medical care protocols."
"Medical documentation confirms that proper care protocols were followed, and communication records show that our medical staff provided updates to Bayern Munich throughout the entire tournament."
