Alphonso Davies’ agent set to meet Man United as contract talks with Bayern Munich break down again | OneFootball

Manchester United emerged victorious in their FA Cup third-round tie against Arsenal by the skin of their teeth, winning 5-3 on penalties despite playing for over an hour with 10 men.

Diogo Dalot saw a second yellow early in the second half and his mistake almost cost his team but the players showed immense bravery to book a place in Round 4.

Ruben Amorim has explained that his compatriot is more suited to the right flank than the left wing but has been forced to play him there due to Luke Shaw’s injury and Tyrell Malacia’s struggles since his return.

The head coach would prefer to strengthen out wide this January with multiple names linked with a move, among those being Alphonso Davies of Bayern Munich.

Davies-Bayern contract talks have broken down again

The Canadian’s contract with the Bavarian giants ends in 2025 and Bayern are desperate to try and tie him down on a new long-term deal.

However, there have been lots of contrasting reports regarding those talks with some saying that the 24-year-old is likely to continue in Bavaria while others have said the full-back wants to leave.

Bild journalist Christian Falk has now claimed that contract talks have broken down and the player’s agent Nick Househ is eager to find Davies a lucrative next move.

The agent has planned discussions in the coming days with not only the Red Devils but also Real Madrid and fierce rivals Manchester City and Liverpool.

“Our Story: Alphonso Davies’ agent will leave Munich tomorrow. There’s still no agreement over a new deal with FC Bayern.

Meeting with potential suitors on the cards

“The Agent Nick Househ wants to make meetings with Real Madrid, FC Liverpool, Manchester City and United,” Falk wrote on X (formerly Twitter).

If this report is true, in the end it is likely to boil down to which club offers the defender the highest wages as well as the largest commission to the agent.

The Canada international was currently earning €216,346 gross per week (via capology) and given the club’s PSR concerns, the 20-time English league champions are unlikely to go above €300,000 gross per week, which could hamper the move.

Davies’ attacking qualities makes him the standout wingback target for Amorim but whether INEOS can deliver remains to be seen. If the Bundesliga star ends up joining a domestic rival, it would be a huge blow for United.
