Man Utd target ‘dreaming of Real Madrid’
Manchester United target Alphonso Davies is reportedly “dreaming” of a move to Real Madrid next summer.
The Canada international is set to become a free agent when his Bayern Munich contract expires in 2025 and Man Utd have recently joined the race to sign him.
Reports suggest that Davies would be open to an Old Trafford switch, with Erik ten Hag viewing the 23-year-old as the perfect solution to Man Utd’s left-back woes.

Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia are both currently sidelined through injury and Diogo Dalot has been forced to deputise in their absence so far this campaign.
As a result, the Red Devils are eager to sign a new left-back next year, with Chelsea’s Ben Chilwell and Bournemouth’s Milos Kerkez among their targets for 2025.
Davies is also wanted by Man Utd and the Old Trafford outfit are hoping to win the race for his signature, despite significant competition from a host of European giants.

Alphonso Davies wants Real Madrid
Despite interest from Man Utd, Davies still favours a move to Real Madrid, according to German journalist Christian Falk.
He told GiveMeSport: “Alphonso Davies is still dreaming of Real Madrid. Bayern Munich have taken a break on contract talks.
“They don’t want to engage in discussions with his agent, Nick Huoseh, any more, as they think the salary demands are too high. They don’t want to pay him over €20m a year.

“If United are willing to pay this, they would be a big competitor for Real Madrid. At the moment, I heard of talks with Real Madrid but I’ve yet to hear the same for Manchester United.
“Of course, if a player like Davies is on the market, he’s also on the radar of United. If they’re searching for a player in that position, Davies would sit at the table.”
