Ümit Aydın Davala (born 30 July 1973) is a Turkish former international footballer, currently managing Turkish 2. Lig side Tuzlaspor.
Davala played with VfR Mannheim, ASV Feudenheim, Türkspor Mannheim, Afyonspor, Genclerbirligi, Diyarbakırspor and Istanbulspor AS before joining Galatasaray in 1997. He won three successive Turkish championships. In 2000, he helped the club to win the Turkish Football Cup by scoring two goals in the final against Beşiktaş. In same year, he helped the club win the UEFA Cup final against Arsenal and the European Super Cup against Real Madrid.
In September 2001, Davala transferred to A.C. Milan in a 5 million euro deal. He made the transfer because he wanted to follow his former coach at Galatasaray, Fatih Terim, who had been named head coach of Milan. But in November, Terim was fired and replaced by Carlo Ancelotti, after which Ümit lost his first-team place. In June 2002, he was sold to Internazionale Milano in exchange for Dario Šimić, but was immediately loaned back to Galatasaray. In July 2003, Ümit was loaned to Werder Bremen, helping the club win the German Championship and German Cup. In July 2004, he was signed permanently, but injuries limited his appearances. A hip injury suffered in October 2005 proved too difficult, and over the winter break of the 2005–06 season he was released by the club, and retired from professional football.
