VANCOUVER, BC – On Sunday afternoon at BC Place, Alphonso Davies will say goodbye to the city of Vancouver. And the city of Vancouver will say goodbye to Alphonso Davies, who will play his final Major League Soccer match before joining Bundesliga giants FC Bayern Munich in January.
It’s sure to be an emotional occasion for Davies, his parents (who are making the trip from Edmonton), and everyone else in attendance. After all, this is a kid we saw grow up right in front of our eyes.
We saw him arrive in Vancouver at age 14 – eyes wide open.
