Canada men's association football chieftain Alphonso Davies sustained a left wing hamstring tendon harm in Bayern Munich's Champions League semifinal against Paris Saint-Germain, putting his availability for the upcoming World Cup in doubt.
The German club said Friday on its X account that Davies will be out "several weeks" after picking up the injury in Bayern's 1-1 draw with PSG on Wednesday.
Canada, which is co-hosting the World Cup with the United States and Mexico, plays its first game June 12 against Bosnia-Herzegovina in Toronto.
Davies has struggled to stay healthy leading up to the soccer showcase.
The injury is the third for Davies since he returned on Dec. 8 from a 260-day layoff from a torn cruciate ligament in his right knee.
He was out Feb. 22 to March 9 with a muscle fibre tear, then from March 11 to April 2 with a right hamstring injury.
