Manchester City and Liverpool join Real Madrid in the race to sign Bayern Munich defender Alphonso Davies, according to a report.

Real Madrid reportedly face competition from Manchester City and Liverpool for Bayern Munich defender Alphonso Davies, with the Premier League duo also keen on his signature this summer.

There is currently widespread speculation surrounding Davies's future at Allianz Arena, as his contract with the Bundesliga champions is due to expire in June 2025.

Real Madrid are believed to have identified the Canada international as their leading left-back target, with the Spanish giants said to have a long-term interest in his services.

However, according to HITC, both Man City and Liverpool are also keen on the 23-year-old, with the English duo rivalling Los Blancos for his signature.

The report claims that Bayern are still hopeful of convincing Davies to pen a new contract at the club, with talks over a renewal taking place over the last 12 months.

However, the Munich giants are prepared to sell him during this summer's transfer window if it becomes clear that he will not be penning a new deal at the club.

Both Man City and Liverpool are allegedly being kept informed of any developments, although Real Madrid remain firmly at the head of the queue if he does move on this summer.

La Liga president Javier Tebas has said that Real Madrid are in a position to make signings in the upcoming market due to their "excellent financial situation".

Davies made the move to Bayern from Vancouver Whitecaps in 2018, and he has represented the German club on 180 occasions, scoring nine goals and registering 28 assists in the process.

The Canadian has won 13 trophies during his time in Munich, including five Bundesliga titles and one Champions League.

Bayern are searching for two more trophies this season, currently sitting second in the Bundesliga table, two points behind leaders Bayer Leverkusen ahead of Saturday's huge clash between the two sides.

Meanwhile, Thomas Tuchel's side will head to Lazio next week for the first leg of their last-16 clash in the Champions League.

Davies has made 27 appearances for Bayern this season, scoring once and registering three assists in the process, but he is now facing a spell on the sidelines with the knee injury that he suffered during his team's 3-1 win over Borussia Monchengladbach last weekend.
