Manchester United is preparing to compete with Real Madrid for the signing of Alphonso Davies, one of the most talented full-backs currently in football.
Davies, whose contract at Bayern Munich will end after the 2024-25 season, is a top priority for United, who wish to bring the speedy Canadian player to their club.
At just 23 years old, Davies has established himself as a prominent figure in European soccer, attracting interest from various teams.
Real Madrid has been keeping an eye on him for a while and seemed to have the upper hand. However, reports from Sky Germany’s Florian Plettenberg indicate that United is ready to enter the race.
United’s Left-Back Dilemma: Can Davies Provide the Answer?
The difficulties with United’s left-back position are well-known. Luke Shaw has struggled with injuries, and Tyrell Malacia is also unavailable, forcing the team to try makeshift alternatives.
Davies is a potential solution—his remarkable speed allows him to defend effectively while enhancing the team’s attacking capabilities.
A combination of Davies and Marcus Rashford on the left could be a nightmare for opposing defenders in the Premier League. Old Trafford could certainly benefit from some excitement and pace right now!
However, it’s not without challenges. United understands they are not the frontrunners in this chase. Davies has been associated with Real Madrid for a long time, and it’s rumored he dreams of joining the Spanish side to follow in Kylian Mbappe’s footsteps and shine in La Liga.
Despite this, United is not ready to back down easily. They are thoroughly researching how to secure one of the best left-backs available on a free transfer. The question remains—can they outmatch Real Madrid? Only time will reveal if United can successfully execute this transfer.
