Manchester United are reportedly making a move for Bayern Munich left-back Alphonso Davies, as they aim to beat Real Madrid to his signature in the summer. With Davies approaching the final six months of his contract, both clubs are closely monitoring his situation, with United now stepping up their efforts to secure his services.
United’s new head coach, Ruben Amorim, is keen to strengthen his squad with a new left-back, and sources in Germany suggest that Davies has emerged as a key target. According to German journalist Christian Falk, the Premier League club has already requested a meeting with the 24-year-old Canadian to discuss the possibility of a free transfer to Old Trafford next summer.
While Real Madrid have long been interested in Davies, they are known for their cautious approach with free agents, often challenging players to reject offers from other clubs if they truly want to join the Spanish giants. However, Davies’ future at Bayern Munich is far from certain. Sky Germany reports that negotiations for a contract extension have made significant progress, with Davies reportedly lowering his salary demands, which has brought a new deal closer to fruition.
Despite this, Manchester United remains optimistic and is prepared to present a compelling offer to Davies in the hope of persuading him to move to the Premier League. The club is aware that Bayern are confident in securing an extension for their star left-back, but they will continue to push for the player as they prepare for a possible summer transfer battle.
Bayern Munich officials, who have been publicly addressing Davies’ future over recent months, are becoming increasingly confident that a new contract will be agreed, strengthening the club’s plans under manager Vincent Kompany. United will be hoping they can convince Davies to choose a new challenge ahead of what promises to be a highly competitive transfer race.
