Real Madrid are also reportedly interested in signing Davies as a free agent in the event he does not sign a new contract with Bayern. The left-back has made 10 appearances for the Bundesliga club so far this season.

Elsewhere, United are also reportedly interested in signing Bayern forward Leroy Sane. According to Fussball.News, the Reds are considering a move to sign the former Manchester City winger when his contract expires at the end of the season.
