Man Utd transfer news: Paulo Dybala lined up for Old Trafford move
United are frontrunners for the Juventus striker ahead of Man City and Liverpool
As if their week couldn’t get any worse, Manchester City are set to miss out to their neighbours in the race to sign Paulo Dybala from Juventus, according to the latest reports.
City, Liverpool and Manchester United have been tailing the Argentina international, whose future in Turin, according to the Daily Star, is “in doubt”. It appears that the South American striker feels the time is right to leave Juve and his sights are set on the Premier League.
The Star says that United are the “frontrunners” for Dybala and Jose Mourinho is desperate to bring the 24-year-old to Old Trafford this summer.

With doubts remaining over the long-term future of Alexis Sanchez, and rumours suggesting Anthony Martial may be soon heading out of the exit, Dybala would be a welcome addition to the Red Devils’s frontline.
Meanwhile, United are reportedly bracing themselves for another approach from Real Madrid for David de Gea, says Goal.com.
After Keylor Navas made one of the “highest profile goalkeeping blunders in recent years” during Real Madrid’s Champions League quarter-final second leg against Juventus last night, it’s claimed in the Spanish press this morning that Real will make another concerted effort to prise De Gea from Old Trafford.
