Bundesliga speedster dreams of Real Madrid move despite Manchester United interest
Bayern Munich and Canada left-back has his heart set on a move to Real Madrid, despite growing interest from Manchester United, reports AS.
The speedy defender’s contract with Bayern Munich is nearing its expiration in the summer of 2025, and, as things stand, all signs point to the Santiago Bernabeu as his preferred destination.
Real Madrid long-term admirers of Davies
Real Madrid’s interest in Davies has been an open secret for some time, with the Merengues even exploring a move for him in the summer earlier this year.
While nothing materialised, the Canadian international’s representatives are already engaging in preliminary discussions with the Spanish champions over a free transfer in 2025.
As reported earlier today, though, Manchester United have also expressed interest in securing Davies’ services.
Indeed, the Red Devils have gathered information on the player but are well aware that their prospects of signing him are not particularly high.
Davies wants Madrid
After all, as per the report, Davies’ clear preference for a move to Real Madrid, which he views as a dream transfer and the next big step in his promising career.
It appears that the Bayern Munich full-back is captivated by the prospect of donning the famous white shirt of Real Madrid in the coming season.
While the Bundesliga heavyweights remain open to negotiations for a contract renewal, Davies’ ambitions seem firmly fixed on a move away, particularly to Real Madrid even though Manchester United are sniffing around.
The 23-year-old has been in fine form for Vincent Kompany’s team this season and is eager to bring an end to his spell in Bavaria on a strong note.

Mourinho considering starting 23-year-old Real Madrid ace against Villarreal – report
After impressing during the international break, Eduardo Camavinga has a major opportunity to establish himself in Real Madrid’s midfield rotation.
Indeed, according to Defensa Central, Jose Mourinho is considering starting the Frenchman against Villarreal, with injuries and doubts over several players limiting his options.
Real Madrid cannot afford to drop points against Villarreal if they want to remain in the title race. However, Mourinho has issues to deal with in the squad, which could lead him to turn to Camavinga for a crucial role.
Camavinga could replace Tchouameni in midfield
The 23-year-old star could line up as the defensive midfielder in the double pivot, with Bernardo Silva or Arda Guler alongside him, and will be tasked with providing balance in midfield.
Real Madrid face Villarreal with several problems in central defence. Ibrahima Konate is expected to be a late call, leading Mourinho to consider moving Aurelien Tchouameni into defence alongside Antonio Rudiger.
Meanwhile, Federico Valverde could also struggle to be ready after the ankle injury he sustained in the derby before the international break.
The Uruguayan has continued to work individually away from the group and might return to group training tomorrow. Even then, his readiness to start remains in question.
That would leave a place open in midfield, with Camavinga in line to fill in.
Camavinga impressed during the international break
Camavinga has started only one match this season, the defeat against Real Betis.
Despite his limited opportunities, Mourinho is keen to bring the Frenchman back into the fold after he impressed for France during the international break.
Zinedine Zidane called the Real Madrid star up for his first France squad, and the midfielder performed well during the break.
That has given Mourinho and Real Madrid reason to be optimistic about using him against Villarreal, with the hope that he can move closer to the level he showed after first arriving at the club.
Therefore, the Villarreal match could represent an important test for Camavinga and a chance for the Frenchman to show that he can provide the balance Real Madrid need in midfield.
