As of today June 11, 2026, here’s the latest on Alphonso Davies:
Injury & World Cup status
Current situation: Davies is dealing with a hamstring strain he picked up May 6 in Bayern’s Champions League semifinal vs PSG. Initial recovery timeline was 4-5 weeks, which puts his return right around Canada’s World Cup opener.
Availability for June 12 vs Bosnia: He hasn’t ruled himself out. Davies told reporters in Montréal: “Anything is possible in life… For me, it all depends on how the recovery is going, how these next few days, this week, leading up to the game go”. He added “If I’m recovering as good as possible, let’s see. If not, then there’s no need to rush”.
Training update: As of last week, he was back touching a ball in Montréal. He worked one-on-one with a trainer doing jogging, changes of direction, and ball touches — a step forward in return-to-play protocols. He was one of 5 Canadian players not in full training 2 days before the Ireland tune-up.
Canada’s schedule
World Cup opener: Canada plays Bosnia and Herzegovina tomorrow, June 12, 2026 at Toronto Stadium.
Next match: Canada vs Qatar on June 18, 2026 at BC Place in Vancouver.
So he’s a game-time decision for the opener. Coach Jesse Marsch and Davies are emphasizing not rushing recovery, but he’s clearly pushing to be ready for Canada’s first-ever World Cup game on home soil.
