Alphonso Davies Facts
- Alphonso’s parents fled their native Liberia during the ‘Second Liberian Civil War’ and stayed in Buduburam, a refugee camp in Ghana. He was born there and when he was 5 years old, his parents relocated to Canada. Alphonso officially received his Canadian citizenship only in June 2017.
- When he joined Vancouver-based 2nd-tier club Whitecaps FC 2 in early 2016, he was the youngest player (15 years and 3 months) to sign a USL (United Soccer League) contract. In May 2016, he became the then youngest player to score a USL goal.
- After graduating to the Vancouver Whitecaps FC and stringing together a series of strong performances, he attracted the attention of several major European clubs and was eventually signed up by FC Bayern Munich for a then-record transfer fee for an MLS player.
- At the 2017 CONCACAF Gold Cup, he won the ‘Golden Boot’ award and was named in the tournament’s ‘Best XI’.
- In October 2019, he scored the opening goal in a 2-0 win for Canada against the United States in a CONCACAF Nations League match. It was Canada’s first soccer win against their southern neighbors in 34 years.
