In a follow-up to this morning’s news that Juventus would be willing to offer Paulo Dybala in exchange for Manchester United’s Romelu Lukaku, it’s now being reported that Dybala’s agent is already in the UK and has held talks with the Red Devils.

Courtesy of The Sun, Dybala’s agent flew into London today to hold talks with United over the Argentine plying his trade at Old Trafford next season.

New Juventus boss Maurizio Sarri has made his intentions clear that he would be willing to part with the 25-year-old forward if it means being able to bring Lukaku to Turin, although Dybala himself is said to be keen to stay with Juve.

This morning’s reports suggested that this matter would be sorted one way or another within the next few days, and this new story explains that Dybala is indeed now taking a few days to mull over whether or not to join Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s Manchester United.

Belgium international Lukaku has made it well known that he’s keen to leave the Theatre of Dreams this summer, with Inter Milan and Juventus currently vying for his signature.

After Antonio Conte’s Inter failed to meet United’s valuation for their number 9, Italy’s famed Old Lady have become the frontrunners to sign Lukaku.
