Man United make contact for Alphonso Davies

Alphonso Davies is set to become one of the most wanted free agents ever, as very few players of his ca𒊎libre become availableꦍ for nothing.

Manchester United’s footballing department are believed to have made enquiries in recent weeks, whilst TBR Football can confirm that Liverpool, Chelsea and Manchester City are long-term admirers of the Canadian and we are told they are in regular contact about a possꦅible deal.

We are told that all of Davies’s Premier League suitors accept that he almost certainly heading for Spain but as one senior Premier League club source told TBR Football: “He 💙is so talented that you have to at least make anꦗ offer.”

Should Davies seal his move, he might not be the only high-profile Bosman free to arrive in 2025 as they also continue t🍸o work on a possible deal for Trent Alexander-Arnold, who like Davies, can move for nothing at the end of the season.

Alphonso Davies is one of the fastest players in the world

According to , Alphonso Davies is the 19t♛h fastest footballer on the planet, clocking in at a top speed of 36.51 km/h.

Tottenha🃏m Hotspur’s jet-heeled centre-back Micky van de Ven unsurprisingly takes the numbe🌳r one spot (37.38 km/h).

If United were to land Davies’ signature, it’d certainly solve their left-back wౠoes and he’d suit Ruben Amorim’s three-at-the-back system🐲.

Amorim is set to be appointed as ten Hag’s 🥃successor.
