Manchester United may have had a difficult start to the season, but the Old Trafford club are plotting a sensational January transfer that promises to shake up Real Madrid.

Erik ten Hag’s club are in the market for a dramatic move for Bayern Munich full-back Alphonso Davies and are ready to pounce on the Canada international as soon as possible, according to a report from Fichajes.

This follows German reports over the weekend that Man Utd are ‘dreaming’ of the player, but it goes even further to state that the Red Devils will look to complete a deal immediately. Indeed, it looks like the Premier League giants are ready to bet everything on Davies during the January transfer window.

The competition should be tough from Real Madrid. Previous rumors indicated that the Spaniards were ahead in the race for the full-back, and in January they will have the opportunity to discuss terms with him for an arrival in the summer of 2025, when he becomes a free agent .

Likewise, it is believed that if Manchester United are willing to match the player’s wage demands, they have a chance of bringing in the 23-year-old.

How much does Alphonso Davies transfer cost?

With Bayern ready to break off contract talks with Davies, it is unclear what kind of fee they might agree to in January to recoup some of the €14m they invested in the player when they signed him of the Vancouver Whitecaps in 2019.

With Man Utd desperate for a left-back, it could be that the Red Devils are willing to pay that type of fee for a world-class player. Davies, after all, is the best full-back in the Bundesliga so far this season.
