Alphonso Davies is open to leaving Bayern Munich as a free agent next summer and could hijack ‘s efforts to sign him, according to reports. United have been strongly credited as suitors in the race for Davies’ signature but may see the Canada captain join their fiercest rivals.
The 24-year-old’s future is uncertain as his contract at the Allianz Arena continues to tick down towards next summer.
United are at the forefront of transfer links alongside Real Madrid, reportedly looking to add another box office free agent to Carlo Ancelotti’s ranks.
However, there could be a major third player entering the frame in at the end of ‘s maiden season at the helm.
The Reds’ need to find a long-term successor to Andrew Robertson is growing more pressing with every below-par performance.
And according to , could organise a meeting with Davies’ agent, Nick Nuoseh, when he lands in England as part of his tour to talk with interested clubs next year.
It’s claimed that Huoseh is set to put his feelers out in the new year before Davies decides whether he wants to remain at Bayern or pursue a fresh challenge.
The report adds that the 24-year-old is willing to try something new away from Germany but isn’t fixed on United or Real as potential destinations.

Contract talks with Bayern are also said to have been put on hold until next month, and reportedly have a chance at luring him to Anfield.
However, United and Real’s admiration is believed to be more concrete than ‘s at this moment in time, while Bayern are pushing for him to sign new terms.
The Bavarians are currently on course to reclaim the Bundesliga title and resume their dominance in Germany.
Vincent Kompany’s side currently lead champions Bayer Leverkusen by four points at the league summit, having won 10 and lost just one of their 14 matches.
Bayern still have work to do in the Champions League, though, as do many of the competition’s heavyweights.
They sit in 10th, one point off the top eight (automatic qualification to the last 16), with a trip to Feyenoord and a home clash with winless Slovan Bratislava left to play.
Meanwhile, are sitting pretty at the Champions League summit, winning all six of their matches so far, scoring 13 times and conceding just once.
If Slot can continue his stunning early momentum and achieve European glory at the first time of asking, there wouldn’t be a bigger pull factor for Davies or any other big-name target.
