Davido’s songs prepare me for matches – Bayern Munich star, Alphonso Davies
Bayern Munich’s electrifying defender, Alphonso Davies, has a not-so-secret weapon for his pre-game rituals: the beats of Nigerian superstar Davido. In a lively video shared by the Bundesliga on social media, Davies unveiled his top five hype tracks, with Davido’s hits taking two coveted spots.
“If I could only have five songs to get pumped for games? That’s very tough!” Davies exclaimed. “But here they are: ‘Nonstop’ by Drake, ‘Fein’ by Travis Scott, ‘Tombstone’ by Rod Wave, and from Davido, ‘Legend Can Never Die’ and ‘No Competition’.”
The influence of Davido’s music isn’t confined to Davies alone. Real Madrid’s dynamic midfielder, Aurelien Tchouameni, also shared his love for the Afrobeats icon, revealing he has been a fan since the age of 10. Tchouameni crowned ‘Kante’ featuring Fave as his all-time favorite song, declaring Davido as his top African artist.
It seems Davido’s infectious rhythms are the secret sauce energizing some of football’s brightest stars.
